Correct on all counts.....unless we can somehow scare enough traitor Republican. politicians. Not likely, but still possible. Forget Ryan & Rubio. They will be paid millions by big business for selling us out.

I called Weeper Boehner's office (202-225-0600) and told the staffer (shocked that I actually got a live answer, not a recording) that Boehner must Blue Slip the bill. The staffer asked, "What's Blue Slip?" I kid you not. I explained the term and the process.

I see Boehner believes in keeping a dumbed down staff.

Forget Ryan & Rubio. They will be paid millions by big business for selling us out. True. The (former commerce sec'y) Gutierrez/Chamber of Commerce SuperPAC has likely promised to fund their re-eleciton campaigns and any attack ads against their opponents :(

EVERY Repub Rep up for re-election in 2014 should be put on notice. They either think we won’t remember, or that it won’t matter (as in, their re-election campaigns will be fully funded).

EVERY Repub Rep up for re-election in 2014 should be put on notice. They either think we wont remember, or that it wont matter (as in, their re-election campaigns will be fully funded). Agreed. I have called three times, the rep's phone person was very helpful, told me he would get my comments to him right away. He also said the rep thought about the issue as I did, it was encouraging.
I sent him a letter, the rep's rep called me today, telling me he moved my letter to the top of list to be read.
If you haven't done this same thing, it's important to do it now. They will have a big meeting on July 10 how to proceed with this issue. Now is the time to pressure, we have less than two weeks to make a firewall around this issue, and will no doubt have to keep pressure on until this travesty of a bill dies.
