Turning Hope Into Action: What's next for CREDO Action?

What should CREDO prioritize in 2009?

The prospect of a progressive administration taking office this January is truly exciting - for the first time in eight years, we have a chance to enact meaningful solutions to our nation's most serious problems. We want to work to support President-elect Obama's progressive agenda - but there will be a minority in Congress fiercely resisting change, and we're going to have to fight.

Have a look at the issues below - you can choose one issue as your first, second, and third top priority - then you can check the box beside any other issue that you think is also important, even if it didn't make your top three. You can also use the "other" field to let us know about any issues we may have missed.

So, what should CREDO fight to accomplish in 2009?
