Not My Chamber: Climate Change Version

This entry was posted by Josh Friday, 20 November, 2009

American Rights at Work is tired of the Chamber of Commerce’s ridiculous anti-progressive tactics. So today, with a Twitter campaign using the #NotMyChamber hashtag and an Act.ly petition, they’re fighting back:

We’re fighting back. Our tweet-a-thon starts with a twitter “flash mob” at 10am Eastern/7 am Pacific on Friday, 11/20. And the tweets keep on going all day and beyond – so it’s never too late to join in!

Start the tweet-a-thon by signing our act.ly Twitter petition to the U.S. Chamber.

Go to http://act.ly/1cc or simply tweet this to sign the twitter petition:

petition @chamberpost: The US #Chamber doesn’t represent me. It’s Not My Chamber! http://act.ly/1cc RT to sign #p2 #NotMyChamber

All morning, and all day, and until the lies stop, we’ll keep tweeting about the U.S. Chamber. And whenever we do, we’ll include the hashtag #notmychamber. We hope you will tweet often about the Chamber today, and include #notmychamber in all your tweets.

Here are some sample tweets they’ve provided:
