DFA offering online Night School training.

Change is coming. And Tom DeLay's resignation announcement earlier this week is only the tip of the iceberg.

The current Republican leadership can no longer hide the culture of corruption behind their spin machine. From the bungled response to Hurricane Katrina to port security to the war in Iraq, Americans are tired of pay-to-play politics and lack of accountability.

We're in a position to make huge gains in 2006, but we need to prepare for the battle to come. This won't be easy. But if we commit ourselves, we will take our country back. So in light of longer days and cherry blossoms blooming—we're "Springing into Action" by bringing back the DFA Night School.
