August is THE crucial month! While the Senators and Congressmen are home in their districts, 'let's give them something to talk about' on Obama's proposals to deform our health system! Even as public opinion has turned against the plan, Obama still has sixty votes in the Senate and an ample margin in the House to pass it. Unless we unleash a FIRESTORM of public outrage, the bill will pass! And your own personal health care will never be the same.
Here's how to fight it:
1. Arm yourself with the facts! Suggested reading. - *Read Chapter 4 in Catastrophe by Dick Morris, "Obama's Health Care Catastrophe", which details how Obamacare will destroy American health care and explains what has happened in Canada!
2. Donate Money to run ads! Time is of the essence. We need to run ads this month! *The League of American Voters has put together an ad to run
3. Email your friends, family and associates! We need a massive outpouring of public opinion. Email your Christmas card list, your colleagues from the office, your friends, and your family. Bring them the facts about health care and Obama's dangerous proposals.
Think particularly of anyone you know in the following states (where the key Senators live):
Maine (Senators Susan Collins and Olympia Snow)
New York (Senator Kirsten Gillibrand)
Virginia (Senator Mark Warner and Jim Webb)
Indiana (Senator Evan Bayh)
Ohio (Senator John Voinovich)
North Carolina (Senator Kay Hagan)
Florida (Senator Mel Martinez)
Louisiana (Senator Mary Landrieu)
Arkansas (Senators Mark Pryor and Blanche Lincoln)
Nebraska (Senator Ben Nelson)
South Dakota (Senator Tim Johnson)
North Dakota (Senators Kent Conrad and Byron Dorgan)
Montana (Senators Max Baucus and Jon Tester)
Wyoming (Senator Michael Enzi)
4. Snail Mail or call your Senators and Congressman! Sit down and write (by hand if possible) a letter to each of your Senators and your member of Congress.
address the letter to:
Your Senator or Congressman
US Senate or US House of Representatives
Washington DC 20510 (Senate) or 20515 (House)
Sending a letter by snail mail is much more effective than by email. They haven't really caught up with the 21st Century in Washington. So buy a real live postage stamp and mail your letters directly. Explain how your personal health care and that of our family will be adversely affected. Even if your Senator or Congressman is a liberal Democrat or a Republican, write then anyway. It can influence the atmosphere in Washington. Senators and Congressmen talk and the more mail they get, the more public opinion weighs on them all. Even the ultra-liberals.
