3. It took me only a few tries to get to Hagan (her DC office).
I called Sanders for about 20 min straight and finally got in - gave my message, they sounded delighted and busy!

Keep trying. They are getting swamped!

:hi: :thumbsup:

4. I also got through to Hagan's office and Al Franken's and Sanders after a while as well
Sanders office is VERY busy so i kept it short and sweet and told Hagan's and Franken's to look to Sanders as an example of how Dems should lead. :hi:

6. I called Voinovich
at his office in Cleveland instead of DC and got thru. The staff member said he was AGAINST TAX CUTS FOR THE RICH!!!!!!!!!!!!!

He certainly is keeping that quiet. He's retiring at the end of the year.

So here's a repugnant doing the right thing.

Who else can we get????

Call your senator's home office...

9. Call local offices - the DC lines are constantly busy. I got through to
Sanders, Brown, Landrieu and both my own Senators at state offices after trying DC lines for a long time.

10. Brownback turned off his fax and email
And he failed to show up for the votes yesterday. He was elected governor on Nov 2 and has apparently quit being our senator. I'm wondering if we still need to pay him?
