Contact these Senators, who are the Republican members of the

Senate Finance Committee,

to WALK OUT of the Committee.

 

If you have been following the Senate Finance Committee meeting on the amendments to the Health Care Bill you know that every single Republican amendment is defeated with unanimous vote by the Democrats and every Democrat amendment is passed by unanimous vote by the Democrats. This is a waste of time and money and America will suffer.  However, there is a way to stop this dead in its tracks.

Rule 4 of the Rules of Procedure for the
Senate Finance Committee reads:

"Rule 4. Quorums. -- (a) Except as provided in subsection (b) one-third of the membership of the committee, including not less than one member of the majority party and one member of the minority party, shall constitute a quorum for the conduct of business.

(b) Notwithstanding the rule prescribed

by subsection (a), one member shall constitute a quorum the the purpose of conducting a hearing."

 Let it be known, that conservative citizens all across the United States demand that the Republican Senators in the Senate Finance Committee stop negotiating and Walk Out for America. We will support this effort and will support the Republican members of the Committee.

 Contact the Republican members listed with a phone call and/or email.  Quote the rule while on the phone and copy the rule in your emails.

 

There was a committee vote today and the public option was defeated by a 15-to-8 vote, but Obama and the Democrats will resurrect this in other forms - please call and email the Senators.
