The
"public option" is a real threat and liberal activists
are flooding Capitol
Hill. See below. --Steve
Dear Resistors:
I just received word from a trusted contact on
Capitol
Hill
that the Left's strategy of flooding Congress with
"Pro ObamaCare" phone
calls is working.
"We just left [a member of Congress']
office and while we
were waiting, their phones were going crazy
demanding"
support for health care and to sign on to the Bennet
letter
committing to voting for reconciliation. The Bennet
effort is to give Pelosi
air cover for the House vote....
Get everyone
you can to call or fax or email."
The "Bennet
letter" refers to a letter from Sen. Michael
Bennet of Colorado which urges
Majority Leader Reid to
use BUDGET RECONCILIATION to pass ObamaCare WITH
THE
PUBLIC OPTION.
In other words, the Bennet letter is designed to
send
a message to House Democrats that the House version of
the bill with
the public option will be included in
the final (real) ObamaCare bill using
reconciliation.
And reports indicate the Bennet Letter already has 33
signers!
+ + Odds of ObamaCare passing
are rising
This contact also relayed the following on the
prospects
of ObamaCare passing...
"The person who has been our main
contact said...last week
she would have thought 20% [likelihood of ObamaCare
passing]
now thinks 50%.... They also have polling data that each
piece of
health care reform when polled line by line has
support and that Americans
will love it after they do it.
My sense is
that we really need the TEA party to bombard
the House members or
this is going to happen."
+ + Two
Key Actions
#1 -- Send faxes right now
Even if you've done
so already...
You can use our FaxFire system to send this message
right
now to your two Senators, your Rep AND the President -- and
MAKE
YOUR VOICE HEARD! Go here to schedule your faxes:
http://www.grassfire.com/3122/offer.asp?ref_id=500062
(As always, we provide all the information for you to
send
your
own faxes if you prefer. Just click the above link.)
#2 -- Call your Senators and
Representative
Again, it appears
the President's grassroots strategy is
working. If you want your voice to be heard, please
call...
http://www.congressmerge.com/onlinedb/index.htm
Rep.
Call the Congressional Switchboard (202)
224-3121
Be sure to tell your
Senators what you think about the "Bennet
Letter" calling for
reconciliation and the public option.
If you have already sent
faxes, thank you! And thanks for
going the extra mile right now with more
faxes and phone
calls. Thank you for all you do as part of the Grassfire
Nation
and ResistNet.
