The Hometown Shakedown goes down TOMORROW

If you haven't felt it yet, the Hometown Shakedown is on. You might want to grab on to something stable or get under a doorframe.

If you haven't heard yet, the LRA Disarmament Bill passed its first big test today. The Senate Foreign Relations Committee affirmed the bill unanimously, moving the bill one step closer to President Obama's desk. This is a colossal pat on the back for all of our efforts, but the time for celebration is yet to come. We still have a lot of work to do.

Tomorrow, we're visiting the offices of over 30 congressional representatives to tell them one thing: we need their support and co-sponsorship of the LRA Disarmament Bill. Across the nation, supporters like you will be swarming the hometown offices of several senators and representatives who are key authorities in the fate of the LRA Disarmament and Northern Uganda Recovery Act.

Never before have we been this close to seeing landmark legislation passed regarding Joseph Kony's ruthless charge.

For that reason, we need your help. When you wake up on the morning of the 18th, go to WeWantObama.com, type in your zip code and find the info to call and email your representatives asking them to support the Bill. Then, visit invisiblechildren.com for up-to-date information on the Shakedown. All day, we'll be giving you pictures, videos, and stories of the emerging developments, and streaming live, via Facebook, to keep you updated. Find out how you can lend your voice in support of this bill, and tell your representative how much their assistance means to you.

Hear what he has to say about why our role is so important in the pursuit of Joseph Kony, and how all of us are having an unprecedented effect on international efforts.
