HOUSE REPUBLICAN WHIP
Mary Fallin
Oklahoma-5th, Republican
1432 Longworth HOB
Washington, DC 20515-3605
Phone: (202) 225-2132
Just spoke to her staff..she is still there on the house floor:)
I just called and said "There's a Republican revolt going on int the House Chamber and I wasn't seeing much coverage of it." I got a run around on it. Was told several times "There are no cameras on now. Cameras are not allowed." I objected, politely, that the story could still be covered.
He seemed mildly irritated that I would question that and asked if I wanted to talk to (name garbled) and I said yes. Got a phone tree that led to leaving a recorded message. I did...
"There's a Republican revolt going on in the House Chamber. I understand that the cameras are turned off. You can still cover the story. Thank you."
Which is pretty much what has been happening, and not getting anywhere. MSM shows some soundbites, commercials get played, and everyone ignores it while waiting for American Idol.
THIS gets attention. Played right, Pelosi won't have much choice but allow the vote. ...and that's all that's being asked for: a straight-up vote on domestic oil drilling. Just one vote.
If it’s nothing more than talk and no action then it really doesn’t matter now does it.
I just called the House Whip and whoever answered was clearly energized! He said they are on the floor right now! I told them it is getting MO out here and to keep it up!
You wanna come to my house?? Maybe send cibby??
I was hoping for Pete King...
AMEN
Sorry to bother all of you, but we are looking for FReepers to call their reps.
Can you help by getting the word out about these reps who are sticking around?
Update - The Capitol Police are now trying to kick reporters out of the press gallery above the floor, meaning we can’t watch the Republicans anymore. But Minority Whip Roy Blunt (R-Mo.) is now in the gallery talking to reporters, so the cops have held off for a minute. Clearly, Democrats don’t want Republicans getting any press for this episode. GOP leaders are trying to find other Republicans to rotate in for Blunt so reporters aren’t kicked out.
DEMOCRATS ARE PANICKING!!!!
Update 2 - This message was sent out by Blunt’s office:
“Although, this Democrat Majority just Adjourned for the Democrat 5-Week Vacation, House Republicans are continuing to fight on the House Floor. Although the lights, mics and C-SPAN camera’s have been turned off, House Republicans are on the Floor speaking to the tax payers in the gallery who, not surprisingly, agree with Republican Energy proposals.
Wonderful.
Won’t get him here until another 15 min.
Maybe I could try his website
Never. ;-)
Well, I bought a lottery ticket today, but the drawing isn’t till tomorrow. =)
From the comments section on Politico (Thread II)
From Rep. Pete Hoekstra at http://twitter.com/PeteHoekstra Message; Call Speaker Pelosi at 202 225 0100. Demand vote on energy legislation. Tweet your friends and call now.
the house whip was VERY happy to take my call and I agree...he sounded VERY energized.
Yes, and I may be able to help out by calling these lines during the middle of the night U.S. time. I'm sure going to try.
It looks like the GOP all of a sudden woke up! I'm just thrilled - and so proud of my Rep. Jon Culberson.
Let's ROLL, fellow patriots! :-D
Not Rep. King NY. Just called and they told me that he went home. I told thsm to tell him to get his butt back ther and stand with the rest of his party. All you NYers call. His staffer was peeved at me.
Pete King: 202-225-7896
Louis Gohmert is the one who submitted the bill to put Gitmo detaines at the Supreme Court.
Well - the workers are working and the complainers are complaining.
