THE TIME IS NOW – Health Care Cloture Vote Saturday Evening

The time is now…

 Every voice must be heard… Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid has scheduled a Saturday evening cloture vote on health care. 

 WHAT IS STANDING BETWEEN HARRY REID AND A VOTE ON OBAMACARE??? A filibuster – it will stop the bill from even being considered on the Senate floor. Reid needs 60 cloture votes to stop a filibuster, and he is very close to attaining those 60 votes.  A vote for cloture is a vote for health care.  Contact the 11 Senators (listed below) now and don’t stop until this battle is over.   

 Thanks for your help… and let’s Kill the Bill! 

 Please spread the word now.

 2)   Why a vote for cloture is a vote for government health care…

 

Why is a vote for cloture a vote for the healthcare bill?  Read this from the Heritage Foundation: 

 “According to an analysis conducted for this office by the non-partisan Congressional Research Service, between the 106th and 110th Congress, there were 41 cases in which the Senate approved the motion to proceed to a bill that the Senate eventually held a vote on final passage.  Of those 41, 40 of the bills received Senate approval (S. 1805 in the 108th Congress was the lone exception).  Based on these numbers, when the Senate votes to invoke cloture on a motion to proceed to a bill, that bill has a 97.6 percent chance of inevitably passing the Senate.

 *This analysis excludes any bill that may have been pulled from the floor for whatever reason after the initial cloture votes or that may have passed by unanimous consent or a voice vote.”

 3)  Join the cause to Stop State-Run Healthcare Colorado

 

Did you know… the Colorado State Legislature is currently proposing government-run health care for Colorado!?!?  Join the cause to Stop State-Run Healthcare Colorado and help stop this outrageous freedom-choking legislation at the state level. 

Colorado has become a pivotal state: it’s been said that as goes Colorado so goes the rest of the nation.  If government-run healthcare were to pass in Colorado, it would only embolden other states to do likewise… maybe even yours!   Let’s set a right precedent!  By supporting the effort to kill government-run health care in Colorado, you are affecting future outcomes in other states!

We the people will not tolerate freedom-choking health care legislation in any form!
