Phil Roe (TN-1) voted wrong last night. The local talker was calling attention this morning. When I called the DC office, I went to voice mail.
I thought Phil had learned his lesson on the CRomnibus. Let’s see if third time is the charm.
Keep calling. I think we are winning. Fox covered up this Huge vote today. Fox is establishment Rino. I just turned them off. I will get all I need on the internet.
Remember to CALL YOUR REP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Obama has gone to the hill to twist arms. How often has he gone to Congress to lobby for a bill? That alone should be a neon red warning sign.
Called...voicemail.

Congressman Allen,
I wanted to request that you vote “NO” on the upcoming House vote scheduled for today (regarding trade). The people of the United States have had enough of this back-room, “pass it before you read it” legislative process. This administration has shown, repeatedly, that it cannot be trusted and that it does not have the best interests of American citizens in mind. The fact that this president is so adamant in his support of this trade bill should immediately raise the red flag. We’ve heard it all before; how wonderful these sorts of legislation will be for the country (ObamaCare, amnesty, etc.). Now, we have the legislative branch ceding powers to the executive? Congress has no constitutional authority to do such an act.
Again, for the good of GA; for the good of the country, vote AGAINST this proposal in today’s vote.
Side note, I see that G.T. was a cosponsor of the bill they just passed that takes country of origin labeling off the things we eat.
HE'S DONE.... HE IS SOOOOO EFFING DONE. I don't care if politically unconnected, ignorant, obnoxious ME has to run as a representative, this guy, who VOTED FOR BOEHNER, is DONE.
According to Paul Ryan, they have enough votes for TPA (fast-track). The concern now is that they won’t be able to get enough for TAA (Trade Adjustment Assistance, that would provide aid and retraining to workers who lose their jobs due to trade agreements), which comes before the TPA vote. And if TAA doesn’t pass, the rest of it falls apart.
TAA is a Dem thing, but they know that fewer Rs support it. So the Dems know they can derail the whole TPA/TPP/TISA train by shooting down their own provisions.
Never used it before. Right now there is no live video, but the microphones are active. Guess they are in recess.
Emailed my Rep at 0950.
We called our congressman. Let your voice be heard while it still can be heard.

Just called Chuck U and Gigglebrat. Got their 19 yr old interns and they were more than happy to take my displeasure against Obamatrade.
Their lines are open and they’re not even asking what your zipcode is like the Pubbie reps do when you call them!! (not surprising)
Gigglebrat: (212) 688-6262
Chuck U: (202) 224-6542
Why is she talking so long and what is she talking about?
“Get the Hook”!
Is there a link to see which way individuals voted?
Looks like TAA just bit the dust.
