However, I cannot take the pledge, because there are so many other important issues that I still might vote against my incumbent representatives if they don't straighten up. For example, Feinstein voted to allow warrantless wiretapping, in violation of the 4th Amendment to the Constitution. So even if she supports your Open House legislation, I will still vote against her if she doesn't rectify her error related to the FISA legislation and defending the Constitution.

If nothing else, it will remove one barrier from the press in pursuing these issues and that is reason enough to support the effort.
