Please give this time. Do not donate until you have confirmed they are action based. And not just spewing right-on rhetoric. We have wasted enough money on the do-nothings. They brought us to this precipice.

They seem to be succeeding in court. When I did a google search last night to get more info on their wins, I'm finding them quoted in credible sources. But I think they're too busy doing actual work to stay on top of their website and tell us what they're doing. My gut says they're very good.
