To do this, MAYDAY is "looking for leaders who understand that the way campaigns are funded is broken." MAYDAY has compiled information about which Members have already committed to reform, and it wants its supporters to "Tell us who you think we could persuade to join us next, and why."
In response, many MAYDAY supporters are submitting to MAYDAY nominations of Congresspersons to be reform allies. Ostensibly this is being handled in the form of private communications by the supporters suggesting to MAYDAY Congresspersons as possible allies, and MAYDAY then tweeting to the Congresspersons a message that their name has been put forth as a possible ally. See @MAYDAYUS.
How successful MAYDAY is going to be in achieving its 2015 goal remains to be seen.
I think its action plan could be significantly buttressed if there was added in a heavy amount of tweeting in the Congressional districts of Congresspersons who have been nominated as possible reform allies.
If you are a nominator of a Congressperson as a potential ally, and you would like to initiate a tweeting campaign in your Congressional district, I would like to work with you. Please contact me if you are interested.
Note: MAYDAY has a website page for submitting ideas to MAYDAY and internal processes for deciding which ideas to take up. I have been doing a lot of direct contacting of MAYDAY supporters about my ideas. While I have called MAYDAY's attention to things I have been doing, and ideas I am trying to put out, I have not done any formal submissions using MAYDAY's website page for submitting ideas. I do not know what MAYDAY's views are about the above idea for bolstering its activity for seeking reform allies that is currently going on.
