Join your fellow Tea Party Patriots as we begin the next phase in our action plan to fight Government Take over of our Health Care. We are making calls to melt Congress' Phone Lines this week, planning Tea Party Patriots Health Care Freedom Town Halls, and walking our neighborhoods to engage our neighbors in this fight.
Currently, the bill has passed out of both the Ways and Means and the Labor and Education Committees in the House of Representatives. It still must pass the Energy and Commerce Committee out of the House of Representatives. On Tuesday, the House Energy and Commerce Committee delayed their meeting on the health care bill to meet with President Obama in the White House. They are feeling the heat. We must keep turning it up.
In the Senate, there are 2 bills. One bill has already passed out of Health, Education, Labor, and Pensions Committee. The other bill has yet to be introduced. 48 hours after it is introduced, the Senate Finance Committee will begin marking up the bill. After the bill passes out of the Senate Finance Committee, it must be reconciled with the bill that was approved in the Health, Education, Labor, and Pensions Committee by the Rules Committee before it goes to the Senate Floor for debate.
We need you to help us prevent politicans from taking over our health care. It is imperative that you make phone calls and melt the phone lines this week and next week. Time is of the essence and the time to act is now. Let's work together to affect meaningful change in America and prevent the government from taking over another aspect of our lives. The government take over of our health care is not a done deal yet. Now is the time to act and to a7ct decisvely. We must weigh in actively, aggressively, and with big numbers.
Extra To Do Item - Email the Chiefs of Staff of the Moderate to Conservative Democrats
The calls you have been making this week are having an impact. Unfortunately, it seems that our voices are simply not quite loud enough. Speaker Pelosi has said that she has the votes to move the Health Care bill out of the House Floor. So, we have to step it up a little bit more. Will you please joining us in emailing the Chiefs of Staff of the following moderate to conservative Democrats? Click for more details.
Want to Do More? Walk Your Neighborhood
Walk Your Neighborhood and ask your neighbors to sign the Free Our Health Care Now Petition. Grassroots activism is truly the most effective way to influence elections. The liberal tax and spend organizations know this and are canvassing neighborhoods to sway people to act on this legislation. We are asking Tea Party Patriots to do the same but to ask people to help defeat it. Neighborhood Walks are an effective and easy way to educate taxpayers.
Use this checklist to plan a Tea Party Patriots Health Care Freedom Neighborhood Walk.
