No, it doesn't. It is about a campaigne to sign a petition "to your 
local chamber". To me that is obviously for U.S. citicens only. The bill 
mentioned in the mail may have international implications, but the 
purpose of that mail is not to tell people abroad about the bill or 
those international implications. It is a chain letter instead which is 
as valuable as spam. Now, if you have some real information about that 
bill, it might be interesting even for people on the other side of the 
pond. And no, links in chain letters don't count as real information 
IMHO.
