mwyn8's JournalMinimum wage vote Wednesday.
I called roy blunt today (Missouri) senator. (202) 224-5721. Told the aide I wanted the minimum wage increased & to forward the message. The entire call took about 2 minutes.
The republicans will surely filibuster this & they need to hear from their constituents.
The capitol switchboard number is (202) 224-3121
March Against Monsanto
This is a world wide event May 24,2014. Here is a link letting you know a location near you.

Last year it was covered by Al Jazeera America but not the major U.S. media. Millions & millions attended these marches world wide. I was told a local station did a 2 minute segment. Once.
I am letting people know that this is Something you can Do, participate in. Make a sign, take a friend. I'm doing a picnic lunch with daughter & am trying to get her friends involved. Make a party.
I am also putting up flyers; Monsanto wants to keep the public in dark regarding the health hazards. I say no.
In K.C.MO Jill Valentine is the organizer & she has a facebook page. Just type in March Against Monsanto K.C. & it should display.
It would be cool to meet some DUer's in the area. I'm traveling from Excelsior Springs MO- about a 35 minute drive. It was fun last year.
The bundy caper/Koch
It was suggested I post this as an OP. I have not been following bundy caper & then I saw this.
and this:
This week, more than 50 elected officials from nine Western states met on April 18 at the Utah Capitol for an ALEC-backed conference called the "Legislative Summit on the Transfer for Public Lands," where they plotted to have federal land gifted to the states (and then to the Kochs, one HAS to assume.) A shadowy group called the American Lands Council led by Koch-bribed puppet Ken Ivory has been pushing this insidious plan for some time.
