What can RPCVs do to oppose the nomination of Gaddi Vasquez?



We have been asked to put together a short note on what you can do to oppose the nomination of Gaddi Vasquez as Peace Corps Director:

What RPCVs can do now?

Here are three things RPCVs can do right now:

1. You can call or email the offices of the four Senators who opposed Mr. Vasquez in committee and thank them for their stand:

Call Senator Sarbanes of Maryland at (202) 224-4524 or email him here

Call Senator Rockefeller of West Virginia at (202) 224-6472 or email him here

Call Senator Feingold of Wisconsin at (202) 224-5323 or email him here

Call Senator Wellstone of Minnesota at (202) 224-5641 or email him here
2. You can call Senator Dodd of Connecticut at (202) 224-2823 or email him here and ask him if he would reconsider actively opposing the nomination.

3. Please check back on this web site before the Senate reconvenes on Tuesday, January 22 to find out the latest status of the nomination, where other Senators stand on the nomination, and who we need to contact to be most effective.

We'll see you then.
