Matt brings us a message from John Courage to anti-immigrant Congressman Lamar Smith, who continues to be out of the mainstream on the subject. Check it out.

Courage will be the beneficiary of a fundraiser headlined by Senator Russ Feingold in April. If you're in Austin and you want to support a good candidate, there's a fine opportunity for you. If you don't want to wait that long, there's also Matt's house party tonight in San Antonio. Every little bit helps.
