House Call on Washington

Posted by Jordan Forbes - November 03, 2009

The House of Representatives may vote on health care legislation THIS WEEK, and we need your help to try to stop them. Right now, we are hearing that Speaker Pelosi does not have the votes, but will bring the bill to the floor as soon as she reaches the magic number of 218. WE CANNOT LET THIS HAPPEN!

The $1 trillion bill, complete with its massive tax hikes, government-forced insurance, new regulations and bureaucracies – all leading to a much larger and more powerful federal government – will be one of the most important votes you will ever witness. For the sake of your future, for the sake of your children’s future, please speak out! House conservatives will lead a “House Call” protest rally on the Capitol steps this Thursday, November 5, at noon. I encourage you to join us in this effort as we tell Congress, one more time, that we do not want the government taking over one-fifth of our economy through passage of this horrific health care legislation. If you cannot make it out to Capitol Hill, please call your Representative around the same time and tell them to vote NO on H.R. 3962, the “Affordable” Health Care for America Act.
