    If there is ONE day to call your Congressman today is it!

    No matter how cynical and sick of it all you are, today is the day to make them feel the heat. Tomorrow is the RyanCare vote and the establishment doesn't have the votes right now. To make up for the weasels who will get cold feet today we need to make every Congress Critter shake in his boots today by blowing up the phone lines. Call your Congressman and say NO to Obamacare 2.0!

    Mine is on the fence, yours might be too. Lets knock them off the fence.

    Massie said the other day
    275 oppose vs 4 support #ObamaCareLite. Phone calls to my office from constituents over last two weeks. Why are we voting on this?

    Lets make it 2,000 opposed for every whore in the swamp!

    They might still vote for it anyway but today is the one chance in our lifetime to KILL the individual mandate and move away from Socialism.

    Give the Insurance Companies and their prostitutes the middle finger today! To Hell with Ryancare!

    Done. My rep is a solid NO vote on the bill.

    Rep. Massie: ‘Obamacare-Lite’ Is Dead; I’ve Spoken to 29 Colleagues Who Will Vote ‘No’

    Rep. Thomas Massie (R-KY) joked that “you might be asking the wrong guy” when SiriusXM host Alex Marlow asked him to explain the House Obamacare bill on Wednesday’s Breitbart News Daily.

    “This bill would replace the subsidies, penalties, and mandates of Obamacare with subsidies, penalties, and mandates of what we’re calling ‘Obamacare-lite,’” said Massie, who is obviously not a supporter of the bill.

    “Frankly, the number of calls to my office – and we only keep track of the constituents who call, in other words, those who are among the 750,000 people I represent – the calls are running 275 against this bill to 4 supporting the bill,” he revealed. “That’s like almost 100 to 1 against this bill. And I can tell you, every other congressional office is receiving the same number of calls.”

    “Now, half of these people that are calling want to keep Obamacare, and the other half want a full repeal, but nobody’s happy with this bill,” he continued.

    “Why did they rush this out there right now? Why did we have to discuss this two months into this administration?” Marlow asked of the hastily prepared replacement bill.

    “Look, there’s two things going on Capitol Hill today,” Massie replied. “There’s Neil Gorsuch’s confirmation hearing, and then there’s this Obamacare-lite. Trump came to sell this bill to us, but it’s not his bill. Look at the two examples of how things turned out for Trump. In one case, he went to Heritage and the Federalist Society and said, ‘Give me some good nominees.’ In the other case, he went to Paul Ryan and the lobbyists and said, ‘What kind of bill do you want?’ You can see the kind of reaction he’s getting. Hopefully, this will be informative to him on where he should go for conservative advice.”

    Remind them they could just vote "present" . . .
    one Democrat won't be present due to a family funeral so Ryan's majority number needed went down one supposedly (to 216 ?)

    If any representative votes present, it doesn't change the total number of yes votes needed to reach the majority that Ryan seeks.

    Last chance, they are still making up their minds they need to fear US more than the establishment.

    CALL NOW!
