Washington, D.C . – As House Republicans continue their ground-breaking effort to engage directly with the American people to develop a new governing agenda, America Speaking Out has launched a first-of-its-kind application for Android-based mobile devices. The new app, available under “America Speaking Out” in the Android market or by scanning the QR-code below, provides users with the full experience and functionality of AmericaSpeakingOut.com in a convenient, portable format. Once installed, users can easily submit ideas, vote on and discuss other submissions, and share to popular social networks.
Noting the release of the new mobile app, Rep. Kevin McCarthy, Chairman of America Speaking Out, offered the following comments:
“America Speaking Out thrives through direct engagement with the American people. With Americans increasingly communicating through mobile devices, this new app will allow us to reach people where they are. As we continue our national dialogue of ideas, this app will offer yet another way for Americans to have their voice heard.”
NOTE: Earlier this year, Pulitzer Prize winning website Politifact.com confirmed that “the House GOP dominates the Democrats on Twitter, YouTube, and other social media in Congress”. So far, over half-a-million Americans have participated at AmericaSpeakingOut.com, submitting over 12,000 new ideas and casting over 600,000 votes.
