OFA Directs Supporters To Call Congressmen
This summer, Organizing for America urged its mailing list to head to the office of their local representatives to talk health care. Even a Democrat wasn't thrilled with the deluge of constituents to offices. But now, President Obama's former campaign network is again directing supporters to target their representatives.
From an e-mail:
Last night, President Obama called on our representatives to pass health reform that brings stability and security to Americans who have insurance, affordable coverage to those who don't, and reins in the cost of care.Now, it's our turn. After last night's speech, members of Congress have no doubt about where the President stands. But to win this fight, we must show that Americans from every state and every background support his plan -- and we need Congress to do the same.
The e-mail then lists the recipient's member of Congress and U.S. Senators, depending on the ZIP Code a user signed up with, and gives the phone number of their local offices.
Call your representatives, and tell whoever answers where you are from and that you watched the President's address.Then tell them that you want your representatives to support the President's plan, ask them where they stand -- and thank them if they already clearly support it.
Don't forget to click here to let us know what they said.
Hundreds of thousands of folks will be calling, so please try again if you get a busy signal.
