Subject: Tuesday: Time to Deliver

[Redacted] --

With health insurance reform finally ready for consideration before the full Congress, we've set a big goal for this Tuesday: 100,000 calls to Congress made or committed to in a single day. We'll make our voices heard above the din crea ted by the insurance industry's campaign of misinformation and fear and make sure our representatives know it's finally time to deliver on health reform.

But here's the thing -- if we're going to get there, we need your help to reach out to friendly folks who still need to speak up in support of reform.

We're holding "Time to Deliver" call parties and neighborhood outreach events across the country. We'll get together in living rooms and community centers, and reach out to supportive voters whose voices are particularly critical in thi s debate. We'll talk to them about the President's plan, and then we'll ask them to call on their representatives to support reform and thank those already doing so.

And the President will be joining all of the events that evening via an exclusive webcast -- please find an event near you and RSVP today:

You don't need to have any experience to attend a Time to Deliver event. The host will have everything set up for you, so it will just be a great evening of reaching out to voters with your friends and neighbors and making a tremendous difference.

We've set a big goal, but if we hit it, two things will happen: we'll have set a new record for contacting Congress in a single day, and the phones in our representatives' offices will be ringing off the hook the whole day, meaning our voices cannot be ignored.

With more than 1,000 events happening on Tuesday, we've got everything set to reach our goal -- but we need you to make it happen.

Please RSVP for an event by you:

See you out there,

There is another even going back to D.C.this month!

A message to all members of Patriotic Resistance

The elected officials in DC seem to think the Tea Party March is over so we all went to sleep again! Really??

We are ready to ROC DC!

Can you make an emergency trip to DC? We will be there the 27th and 28th of Oct. We are asking those who can to join us!

We are looking for a team of approximately 50 members to sign up and assist us with the Petitions opposing the Stealth ObamaCare Health Bill that is a blatant infringement of our Constitutional rights!

Can’t make it to DC? Then we want you to ROC the local Senate office in your state! A Rocfest Tea Party Protest!

The ROC stands for “Restore our Constitution”. Do you believe that the lawmakers are overstepping their boundaries? Do you think that our personal health care should be decided by Washington Bureaucrats? Do you think they are blatantly stomping on our Constitution and Our God Given rights and Freedoms guaranteed to us?

If you say yes then we need you to assist by organizing a local event or signing up for petition deliveries in DC or Come to DC to meet with lawmakers and let these bureaucrats in DC know that we are watching them...and we oppose this stealth legislation they are attempting to pass.

To learn more go here:
http://www.resistnet.com/notes/index/show?noteKey=Virtual_Tea_Party_R.O.C._Fest!

To sign up to meet Darla Dawald, Steve Elliott, and Ron DeJong in DC for Petition deliveries click here:
http://rocfestdc.eventbrite.com/
We will provide a luncheon for the Petition Delivery Team.

The Oct. ROCFEST is about Rocing DC and State Senate offices to make a strong statement that WE OPPOSE this bill! Leave our health care alone!

We cannot ROC them with out you....Contact your State Director, District Coordinator, or Regional Coordinator to organize locally and make sure to spread the word!

+++++We Must Stop This Health Bill! Together We Can!

How about everyone who marched on DC on 9-12 make a phone call on Tuesday, 10-20 to each of their elected representatives? I'm sure we could make more than 100,000 calls.

I'll start. I was there in DC marching on 9-12 and have the pictures to prove it. Who's with me?

I made 3 calls this morning letting them know that I do not support any health care reform at all at this time.

I just received another email from B.O.'s support staff.

Subject: 100,000 calls to Congress


[my name redacted] -- 

Jenny U. from Missouri did what any parent would: When her son needed a kidney, she donated one of hers. But she didn't realize insurance companies would use her kindness as an excuse to never cover her ag
ain, calling her donation a "pre-existing condition."

Now, insurance companies are spending millions on a campaign of lies to kill health reform that would help folks like Jenny. So, today, with crucial negotiations taking place in Congress, we're raising our
 voices and making it clear: It's time to deliver on reform.

We've set a big goal: 100,000 calls to Congress made or committed to in a single day. To hit it, we'll need your help -- will you take 3 minutes to call Congress now?

Call your representatives and tell them: It's Time to Deliver on health reform.

http://my.barackobama.com/CallTTD?district=IL14

According to our records, you live in Illinois's 14th congressional district. Please call:

Sen. Dick Durbin at 202-224-2152
Sen. Roland Burris at 202-224-2854
Rep. Bill Foster at 202-225-2976

(Not your representatives? Click here to look yours up: http://my.barackobama.com/CallTTD)

Health insurance reform is finally ready for consideration by the full Congress, and hundreds of insurance company lobbyists on Capitol Hill are working overtime to kill it. Calling is quick and easy, but 
effective -- and your voice has tremendous power at this critical moment.

After you make your call, tell the staffer who picks up where you live and that you're counting on Congress to deliver on health reform. Let them know that Americans like you support the President's plan -
- and that if your representatives are working to pass it, they have your thanks.

If we hit 100,000 calls made or committed to, we'll send an unmistakable signal that this time, families must come before insurance companies. We'll be tracking progress toward our goal publicly -- make su
re to report your call back to us so we can count it:
