Filibuster Reform vote Jan. 22: Keep calling senators

you can help hold that group together. We need strong filibuster reform, not a weaker version. Call your senator if you believe in this (click to find the phone number).

In addition, call these senators — they are the Democrats flirting with “well, I don’t really know” when the last public list of supporters was announced:

Baucus Max MT D (202) 224-2651
Boxer BarbaraCA D (202) 224-3553
Feinstein DianneCA D (202) 224-3841
Heitkamp Heidi ND D (202) 224-2043
Hirono Mazie HI D (202) 224-6361
Leahy PatrickVT D (202) 224-4242
Reed Jack RI D (202) 224-4642

As of last report, these are the Democratic waverers (and shame on them). Please make the calls, now and daily (if you can) until January 22.

Baucus is a no don't bother

If everyone else in the D caucus is a yes then that means we have 48.

Still hoping Feinstein and Boxer will get off the fence.
