  <blurb>Accountability Now PAC is a grassroots organization devoted to compelling real accountability in Washington by closing the gap between citizens and their elected representatives in Washington, DC. Recent elections and public opinion are clear -- broad majorities throughout the country support renewed accountability.&lt;p&gt;

Today, Accountability Now is launching a major new project devoted to compelling real accountability within the political class. &lt;p&gt;

We believe members of Congress need to hear from their constituents, and that nothing focuses the mind of a politician on listening to citizens, rather than corporations, better than a primary.&lt;p&gt;

Out of these recent lessons, diverse and politically powerful groups have decided to support Accountability Now&amp;#39;s efforts, such as MoveOn, the Service Employees International Union (SEIU), DailyKos, ColorOfChange.org, Democracy for America, 21st Century Democrats and BlogPAC. &lt;p&gt;

Accountability Now PAC will recruit, coordinate, and support primary challenges against vulnerable Congressional incumbents who have become more responsive to corporate America than to their constituents.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</blurb>
