Joan Sharon:

On January 28, Republicans in the House of Representatives voted unanimously against the Stimulus package – a vote that disappointed those who hoped for bipartisan support for this sham "economic recovery" bill, and encouraged and energized Republicans, Conservatives, Reagan-Democrats and Independents throughout the country... Now the bill goes to the Senate, where the President and his far-left toadies hope to snare some Republican senators to join them, the better to claim "bipartisanship" when it ultimately fails.

The other nights I sent you the e-mail addresses of the Senators in the 111th Congress, highlighting the names of Republican Senators who it is now urgent to contact. I also included a sample letter... But after sending a number of letters myself, I realized what a tedious process it was and how impossible for anyone who doesn't have numerous hours to spend on this task... At this point, things look encouraging, with increasing numbers of Republican senators vowing either to insist on major changes to the Bill or to vote against it.

However, there are several senators who invariably "come through" for the opposition. I urge you to call their offices immediately to encourage them to vote NO on the Stimulus package. Here are their numbers:

Susan Collins (R-ME)                  1-202-224-2523
Olympia Snowe (R-ME)                  1-202-224-5344
Judd Gregg (R-NH)                     1-202-224-3324
Lisa Murkowski (R-AK)                 1-202-224-6665
Chuck Grassley (R-IA)                 1-202-224-3744
John McCain (R-AZ)                    1-202-224-2235

These six calls should take less than six minutes but go a long way in making our collective grass-roots strength a determining factor.
