Building upon the movement that started on a cold January morning in Illinois almost two years ago, Barack Obama today announced the creation of "Organizing for America," a grassroots organization that will help ordinary citizens get involved in the legislation-making process.
While President-elect Barack Obama continues on his train trip to Washington, his transition team has just released a video in which he announces the creation of "Organizing for America."
"I'm asking people like you who fought for change during the campaign to continue fighting for change in your communities," Obama says.
The goal is to take those who volunteered during the president-elect's campaign and organize them to "work for change" in communities.
