The Second Session of the 110th Congress is now underway and major political
parties are currently in the process of selecting their candidates for
Congress and President. Now more than ever, it is imperative that everyone
does his or her part in the electoral process in Getting Out the Vote!

The American Legion recently released two new publications for distribution
to the public throughout the 2008 elections. The American Legion, VOTE
America '08, Guide to Promoting the "Get Out the Vote" Program encourages
voter registration, voter education and voter participation in all
elections. This pamphlet suggests activities on how American Legion Posts
can increase the turnout. Veterans traditionally respond to this call to
become actively involved in the electoral process and are the most likely to
cast their ballots on Election Day. The American Legion's goal is to
encourage more Americans, especially veterans and the military family
abroad, to vote.

The other pamphlet entitled, The American Legion, Policy on Illegal
Immigration, A Strategy to Address Illegal Immigration in the United States
offers The American Legion's assessment of illegal immigration and a
strategy on how to effectively address this issue. Everyone is encouraged
to read and understand this booklet as illegal immigration will be one of
the most fiercely contested issues in many state and congressional
elections, as well as the presidential campaign.

Both pamphlets are available for downloading on The American Legion website
at Welcome to the American Legion Online
