It doesn’t hurt to contact them and let them know what you think. They may vote the otehr way anyway, but they’re your members. Why not at leat send an email.
Another tactic is to phone the district offices rather than the DC office. To them, 10 calls are like 1000.

Sen Shelby and several other Rep Senators were on CNBC this morning saying they intent to explain to the American people why this deal is really only a down payment.....
I think that would be a filibuster....I doubt they have the numbers to fight off a cloture vote.....

I think that would be a filibuster....I doubt they have the numbers to fight off a cloture vote..... All they need is 41. I suspect the odds of them getting to that number aren't all that bad. Otherwise, there already would have been a vote.
