Ring In for Health Care
Congress will be voting very soon on important reforms to America's health insurance system, and YOU need to spend a couple of minutes to call your representatives in congress to let them know that you expect them to vote YES for real health care reform.
Think your congressman or senator won't vote for it even if you call? It's still important that THOUSANDS of his constituents call and let them know that they expect him to vote for reform.
Think your senator will vote in favor of reform anyway? He REALLY needs to hear from you that you have his back and are supporting what he is doing.
Call any time if their office in Washington is closed, their answering system will pick it up and record your comments. Be sure to give your name (spell it), address and city.

John F. Kennedy, 1960:
What do our opponents mean when they apply to us the label "Liberal?" If by "Liberal" they mean, as they want people to believe, someone who is soft in his policies abroad, who is against local government, and who is unconcerned with the taxpayer's dollar, then ... we are not that kind of "Liberal." But if by a "Liberal" they mean someone who looks ahead and not behind, someone who welcomes new ideas without rigid reactions, someone who cares about the welfare of the people -- their health, their housing, their schools, their jobs, their civil rights, and their civil liberties -- someone who believes we can break through the stalemate and suspicions that grip us in our policies abroad, if that is what they mean by a "Liberal," then I'm proud to say I'm a "Liberal."
The folks
over at The Progressive Democracy Corps have released their Steve King
information website: www.kingwatch.org - they're
keeping an eye on your congressman.
KingWatch has enough information to make any thinking person sick about the stuff congressman Steve
King says and does.
Did you know that Steve King is protecting the cockfighting industry (and has accepted campaign money from their PAC?)
Or that King built a model of the anti-Mexican wall he says that he himself
would love to build "and make a ton of money." Read a few of King's quotes -
it will help you with your weight-loss program.
This website is a great resource for everyone in the 5th District.
| Words of Wisdom for Our Country: |
| "A little patience, and we shall see the reign of witches pass over, their spells dissolve, and the people, recovering their true sight, restore their government to its true principles. It is true that in the meantime we are suffering deeply in spirit, and incurring the horrors of a war and long oppressions of enormous public debt.... If the game runs sometimes against us at home we must have patience till luck turns, and then we shall have an opportunity of winning back the principles we have lost, for this is a game where principles are at stake." Thomas Jefferson (letter to John Taylor of Philadelphia, June 4, 1798, after passage of the Alien and Sedition Act) |
