“It rang about 10 times and some operator i needed to call my member of congress. No busy signal though. 202-224-3121”

I’ve tried that number a couple times now, I was unable to get through but was still encouraged:

“All circuits are busy now...” lol

Thanks for your list. Just wanted to add Congressman Ron Kind (D-WI.) who I believe is “on the fence” and needs to hear from conservatives who care about health care in America.

This is his web site info.

http://www.kind.house.gov/?sectionid=18

He writes on his site, “I want to hear from you. If there is legislation you support or oppose, or a matter you believe should be addressed, I would like to know.”

So please, take a moment to leave him a “kill the bill” message!

As opposed to yesterday, I am getting busy signals on about 90% of the calls I have tried to make - that is calling direct office numbers, not through the switchboard. I’m wondering if the whole system is getting overloaded with calls. Also did not even get the option of going to voicemail. I hope this is a good sign!

I just called Eric Massa (D-NY). One of his staffers said he will vote NO on Obamacare. It took me several busy signals to get through.

Good news!!

Just for fun I called Steve Austria (my rep) and was assured he completely opposes this bill.

I hope it sticks.

Lipinski’s office says he’s still counting on the Stupak amendment. Light his phones up and tell him to kill the bill.

Called, got transferred to my congressman’s office - Mike Thompson, one of the original authors of the bill who is supposed to be a blue dog. Message box is full.

On C-SPAN2 right now... Congress Critters of the House Rules Committee working late discussing PelosiCare, if you’re interested in watching - it’s LIVE. It’s just incredible to hear these discussions mere hours before voting on this monstrosity. Unreal.

My stomach can’t take the treason and the similarities to Hitler and Nazi Germany.

Never again is here!

I only watched bits and pieces of the live coverage earlier tonight on C-SPAN2. The 'RATs of the House Rules Committee wouldn't even listen to any of the GOOD suggestions and ideas of Pete Sessions (R-TX), Virginia Foxx (R-NC), Steve King (R-IA), and other Republicans. They shot down every Republican amendment to HR 3962.

Several Republican House members who are medical doctors gave very impassioned speeches/comments. Several of the 'RATs looked like they were dozing off during these very interesting speeches, but woke up again once a fellow 'RAT was speaking.

The 'RATs are chomping at the bit to take part in tomorrow's "historic" vote to "provide" health care to all Americans - including ILLEGAL ALIENS, from what I heard tonight. It was sickening to watch and listen to. They finally adjourned - literally applauding themselves for their "efforts" after the adjournment - at about 1:45 AM EST.

Until you hear that this monstrosity of a health care bill is passed or defeated, please continue to call / fax / e-mail your Representative, even if it’s Saturday and/or Sunday.

Debate on this bill will begin on the House floor Saturday morning at 9am EST. Watch the debate on C-SPAN or C-SPAN2.

And keep calling, faxing and/or e-mailing!!!

Kill This Bill!!!

My rep, the Rat KRAPovil, is not on the list, so I called some others. Happy to say that I got the message that the mailbox is full.

Harry Mitchell’s office just said he’s voting to “move the bill forward so it can go to the Senate for improvement.” What a weasel.
