Labor group launches 'Twitter flash mob' against Chamber
http://thehill.com/blogs/twitter-room/other-news/68805-labor-group-launches-twitter-flash-mob-against-chamber

A leading labor group launched on Friday to target the U.S. Chamber of Commerce on Twitter.

American Rights at Work (ARAW), in an email to supporters, will ask backers to sign a petition and, if possible, post a tweet directed at the Chamber for the business group's opposition to health reform legislation in Congress.

The petition drive, set to begin at 10:00 a.m. EST, will ask activists to post the following tweet:

petition @chamberpost: The U.S. #Chamber doesn't represent me. It's Not My Chamber! http://act.ly/1cc RT to sign #p2 #notmychamber

The goal is to create a "Twitter flash mob," a spokesman for ARAW said about the effort on Friday.
