GMTA!

I'll write Roy Beck at NumbersUSA right now and ask him if we can extend the time on this petition. I think we can get it done in a few weeks with the right support.

"Hi, William.

First, thanks for joining O'Reilly and a lot of others in this big
focused effort.

Secondly, I think something must have been confused in the communication
from Bay. The deadline is Memorial Day (May 30), or by JUNE 1.

I know that O'Reilly is a little discouraged that the first week only
reached 315,000 or so, and the pace has definitely been slowing down.
But I think that is a tremendous response -- as long as we all just keep
pushing.

As you say, this needs to be a lot larger than just O'Reilly. Every
talk show host in America who really cares about border security needs
to think of this as not just an O'Reilly project.

Thanks for all that YOU can do in the midst of your primary work.

ROY"

30 days to get 685,000 more to sign........it is doable

UPDATE ON THE SECURE-BORDER PETITION TO PRES. BUSH

374,201 total non-duplicated signatures as of May 7, 9:52 pm.

From an update email from NumbersUSA:

The petition (www.ReformUS.org) went on the internet for the public to sign just last week, Monday, April 25.

We promised to keep you updated on the progress of our very ambitious goal to deliver 1 million petitions to the President before Memorial Day. The outpouring of support has been astounding.

TIME FOR A SECOND-WEEK BOOST

There was tremendous enthusiasm last week as a number of TV and radio talk show hosts publicly drew attention to the petition and its address.

But that support has dwindled a bit in recent days. Some of the hosts seem to be a little discouraged that they weren't able to persuade 100,000 Americans every day to sign for the first time. Bill O'Reilly made a good point on his TV show the other night that at least 1% of Americans (3 million) ought to care enough about the problems of illegal immigration to do the simple act of signing a petition.

But from working on this issue for eight years, we know that it takes a lot to get most people to take any kind of action at all. The key to mobilizing enough Americans to make a difference in Washington is PERSEVERANCE.

New signings have dropped to around 10,000 a day. We have to double that rate if we are to reach our Memorial Day goal. I have no doubt we can do it, but it never happens by accident.

SEND OUT MORE 'TELL A FRIEND' REFERRALS TO THE PETITION

If we are to reach the million-signer goal, it will be because people like you "multiplied" your interest by sending this opportunity to everybody you know -- and also because lots of you who listen to talk radio call in often and give the www.ReformUS.org website name on air for people to sign the petition.

Go to the petition page and click on the link in the middle that says:

Click here for current petition count and to forward to friends

There you will see a place to type 10 email addresses. After you submit the addresses, you can go right back and fill in another 10. We already have people who have entered more than 60 addresses!

Let's keep this national campaign building that wall of support that will be so large that the President can't avoid seeing it.

President, NumbersUSA
