We've got BIG news. And it's pretty sweet.

For the month of January, Ben & Jerry's is renaming its butter pecan ice cream flavor to "Yes Pecan!" and donating the associated proceeds from scoop shop sales of the new flavor to the Common Cause Education Fund!

We're honored to be working with Ben & Jerry's to celebrate the spirit of activism and the newfound optimism that government can work for the common good.

Here's how you can help:

1. Find your local Ben & Jerry's scoop shop and get a cone of "Yes Pecan!" Proceeds will benefit our efforts to help citizens make their voices heard in the political process.

2. Join us on Facebook! Ben & Jerry's is also donating $1 for each person who signs up on our Facebook "cause" during the month of January or who donates to the Common Cause Education Fund, up to $10,000!

3. Tell your friends about these easy (and delicious!) ways to help Common Cause.

I'm off to get some ice cream. Best wishes for a happy and healthy new year.
