Return-Path: Received: from pleuro.soar.cs.cmu.edu by K.GP.CS.CMU.EDU id aa27237; 23 Oct 91 14:23:51 EDT From: Erik Altmann Date: Wed, 23 Oct 91 14:22:56 EDT To: bovik@PLEURO.SOAR.CS.CMU.EDU Subject: Working Assets long distance carrier CC: altmann@PLEURO.SOAR.CS.CMU.EDU I use "Working Assets" long distance. The service is good and the rates competitive. And I'll happily give them my money... Below is the text of an ad from the 10-23-91 edition of the New York Times (from page A11). It gives an idea of how Working Assets works. Erik. -------------------------------------------------------------- TELL GEORGE BUSH TO RESCIND THE ABORTION GAG RULE. WE'LL PAY FOR THE CALL. The vast majority of Americans think doctors at federally funded clinics should be able to counsel women about _all_ family planning options, including abortion. So does a clear majority of Congress. And so do we, Working Assets Long Distance (R). But President Bush is threatening to veto the legislation that would restore freedom of speech between doctors and patients. There's one way to persuade George Bush not to thwart the will of the majority: Let him know immediately and forcefully what you think. Pick up the phone and call the White House at 1-202-456-1111. Tell them that if George Bush denies doctors and patients the fundamental right of free communication, he will not get your vote. Of course, the abortion gag rule isn't the only issue facing our country today. That's why in addition to regular long distance service, Working Assets offers free and discounted long distance calls to government leaders. And that's why we've written a booklet, _The Five Minute Citizen_, which describes effective ways you can make your voice heard in less that five minutes a month. WE FIRMLY BELIEVE that several million Americans taking public stands every month can change the way our democracy works. And we're eager to help make this happen. So eager that we'll happily send you a copy of our booklet. And pay for your call to George Bush.* For more information, and a free copy of _The Five Minute Citizen_, call us at 1-800-CITIXEN.
