Folks, It's Red Alert Time - Call your Reps Now to defeat this Bill on the House Floor! Jim

Pelosi's "new" bill, the Affordable Health Care for America Act (H.R. 3962), has been scheduled to go to the House floor for only a few hours of debate this week! Debate could begin as early as Thursday, November 5th, and a vote could occur shortly thereafter. Pelosi's goal is for this bill to receive as little attention and scrutiny as possible before the vote, so please be aware that once this bill goes to the floor, it will move fast. We need you to continue sounding the alarm and urging opposition to this 2,000-page monstrosity of massive new bureaucracy, redistribution of wealth, and rationed medical care.

Nancy Pelosi's H.R. 3962 contains the following provisions:
* "Grandfathers" out of existence individual health insurance coverage.
* Permits federal taxpayer funding of abortion services, above and beyond the status quo of current law.
* Provides for a "health care czar" called the Health Choices Commissioner, who could forcibly enroll individuals in government-run insurance and whose tasks include requiring random compliance audits on Americans' health benefits plans.
* Allows for "community organizations" like ACORN and Planned Parenthood to assist the Health Choices Commissioner in enrolling individuals in the Health Insurance Exchange.
* Encourages identity fraud for illegal immigrants seeking to gain taxpayer-subsidized health benefits through inadequate citizenship and legal status verification standards.
* Retains the "death panels" by providing for bureaucrats working for a new comparative effectiveness institute funded by a tax on health benefits.
* Retains both the individual and employer mandates to purchase health insurance or else face a financial penalty, and compliance to this mandate will be enforced by the IRS.
* Imposes a 2.5% tax on an individual's modified adjusted gross income if they fail to purchase "acceptable" health care coverage.
* Fails to hold Members of Congress to the same health care system requirements that Americans will have to live by under the public health insurance option.
* Mandates that all health insurance companies accept all applicants, that they cannot deny anyone for pre-existing conditions, and that they cannot increase the monthly premiums for less healthy, more costly consumers.
* Slashes Medicare payments to providers by more than $400 billion.
* Creates dozens of new bureaucracies (111 to be exact) including the Health Benefits Advisory Committee and the Health Choices Administration.
* Encourages people to drop their insurance in favor of the public option as it provides for underpaying medical providers, who will in turn jack up their rates for those patients who have private insurance, driving more people to the cheaper, government plan.
* Institutes $729.5 billion in job-killing tax increases on all Americans, fines those who can't afford to purchase government-forced insurance, and cripples businesses by taxing health benefits.

The clock is ticking. The vote WILL occur at the end of this week. We will keep you updated everyday with the latest details, but there are only a few short days to do all you can to contact your Representatives and to make your voice heard in opposition to this bill. Phone calls are best, so please try to phone both your Representative's Capitol Hill office and his/her district office at least once a day, everyday this week.

For your convenience, here is our list of crucial target Members of Congress.
http://eagleforum.org/alert/2009/pdf/Healthcare-Target-list.pdf

These Members need extra pressure to stand up to Nancy Pelosi and vote NO on H.R. 3962 this week. If your own Representative is solidly opposed to this bill, please phone one of your friends or family members who lives in a district who has a Representative on the fence or who may be leaning toward supporting it, and encourage them to get involved in this fight!
You stopped Congress from steamrolling forward on this legislation last summer, so it's time to do it again this week!

Capitol Switchboard (202)224-3121

We are meeting to ride over to Tammy's office and present our questions about the Federal Reserve.

Several of us had a great time together visiting U.S. Representative Tammy Baldwin’s regional office in Madison this week. We sat down with an aide there, and listed our concerns with the Federal Reserve and our request that she co-sponsor Ron Paul’s bill HR1207 to Audit the Fed.
Publically auditing the Federal Reserve is one step to gaining Americans’ attention to the Federal Reserve and a step to abolishing the fed.

We’ll be stopping by her regional office on Doty St. in Madison again on Friday, March 27th at lunchtime to keep the pressure on this office until Rep Baldwin co-sponsors this bill. Please join us.
We’ll be meeting at:
Place: 10 East Doty St (outside the front door to the building on the sidewalk)
Time: 12:15pm (lunch hour)
What to bring: Just yourself or a letter for Tammy Baldwin asking she co-sponsor HR1207. Here’s a sample:

The Honorable Tammy Baldwin
2446 Rayburn Building
United States House of Representatives
Washington, DC 20515

Dear Representative Baldwin,

I urgently seek your Support and Co-Sponsorship of H.R. 1207: The Federal Reserve Transparency Act of 2009.

Recently, it has come to light that the Federal Reserve is not accountable to American citizens. While we are required by law to give an accounting of every penny we come in contact with, the Federal Reserve, in contrast, can spend as it pleases without Congressional approval or oversight. In this economic crisis, we deserve an accounting of how our money is being spent-- H.R. 1207 will shed light on the Federal Reserve. President Obama pledged to bring transparency to Washington D.C., and by supporting this piece of legislation you are assisting the President in achieving this very worthy goal.

President Obama also pledged to work with both parties in order to find bi-partisan solutions to the problems facing America. H.R. 1207 currently has bi-partisan support amongst its 28 co-sponsors. Your support for this legislation will demonstrate a willingness on your part to put the interests of your constituents before party loyalties.

This critical legislation is short and concise, and can be read in less than 5 minutes. I encourage you to take the time to read H.R. 1207, and then swiftly act to support it. A lack of support for H.R. 1207 suggests that you oppose the President's goals of transparency and bi-partisanship, and instead favor secrecy and division.

Thank you in advance for your attention. I have every expectation that you will do right by your constituents and support this measure to bring accountability to the Federal Reserve.

Sincerely,

Each person should bring a piece of paper addressed to Tammy with his/her questions and contact info. Addresses are good and show you are from the area. We want Tammy to address each person individually, so your telephone # or e-mail is good. Each person should sign it and request she support HR 1207.
If you have time we can have lunch together afterwards. Please RSVP if you know that you are comming ahead of time, so we can make arrangments
Mike G.
