June 24, 2009 | blueyon

[blueyon]

Just say NO to the Cap n Trade bill! Congress is trying to pass Capitol Switchboard: 202-224-3121 or 800-828-0498

WE MUST ACT NOW! THIS BILL WILL BE DEVASTATING FOR OUR COUNTRY. THIS BILL NEEDS TO BE DEFEATED! PLEASE ACTIVATE YOUR PING LIST, EMAIL LIST, FACE BOOK, TWITTER OR ANY OTHER WAY TO MAKE THIS KNOWN. Call Congress. Please be active as I have said before, the left is. Emails for this and health care are going out, their base has been activated to get it passed. We need to get it STOPPED!

[penelopesire]

Thanks for the list. Bartlett is voting NO. The rest(R) that I was able to get a hold of are undecided.
Here are the names:

Bono ?
Ehlers? (rude woman answers phone)
Frelinghuyson ?
Lo Biondo ?

The rest of the lines were busy.

Keep calling folks!!

[demkicker]

Thanks for keeping this going! Call, call, call!

[Jeff Head]

I have talked to both reps here in Idaho. My rep, the dem who (sadly) won in a close race against Sally, Walt Minnick, will be voting NO on Cap & Trade. I talked to them this morning and they are getting deluged with no calls and he will vote no. That's one Dem they will not have.

Simpson, the Republican will also be voting no.

[penelopesire]

Ellsworth(D) is voting NO!

WOOHOO

Keep it up folks!

Remind them of the upcoming scandal with the EPA emails, etc. Scare the witts out of them!!

[hoosiermama]

great...See anyone else on the list...that you know a freeper in their state, please pass it on.....

Someone on the radio yesterday said we need to start a “Just say “hell” no compaign!” to everything that Nanzi brings to the floor.

[listenhillary]

Remind them of the upcoming scandal with the EPA emails, etc

Fill me in?

[RockinRight]

Who would that be?

Mine is Elijah Cummings...I won’t bother calling him.

[hoosiermama]

Just curious, where did you get your information on Ellsworth?

EPA scandal here:

[BJClinton]

Wouldn’t “Cap And Tax” be more accurate?

[califamily4W]

Called California Congressman Elton Gallegly’s (R) office yesterday, he will vote NO!

[Cheerio]

Is this really going to do anything? The child messiah has them at his beckon call and will sell his soul (if he has one) to get these three major bills through - (1)Cap and Tax, (2) Obamacare, and (3) Amnesty.

I have already done my part during the past couple of weeks but I seriously doubt we have enough sway over the kool aid drinkers that now inhabit this once great nation.

The most obscene item is for these kool aid drinkers to believe the child messiah can actually change anything dealing with CO2 on the globe when it is only the United States imposing cap and tax - any business that can, will leave the USA and set up shop where there are no such restrictions. Then what is he going to do - NATIONALIZE EVERY SINGLE INDUSTRY AND MAKE IT ILLEGAL FOR THEM TO LEAVE THE UNITED STATES? See Obama's Directive 10-289 (http://rightwingnews.com/mt331/2008/11/obamas_directive_10289.php)

Cap and Trade Bill Vote Live on C-SPAN

“democrats are seen as pushing this through over the objections of republicans, that way blaim can be squarely placed on the liberal idiots”

I’m sitting here watching this sham on C-Span. The left wouldn’t permit one extra minute of debate. They added another ream’s worth of paper on this bill sometime early this morning! Once again, no one has read the bill. There should be a limit to the number of pages for every bill.

I have been sending emails to my representatives in D.C. about all of this leftist garbage. Any chance they will ever listen to the people they represent?

I have been feeling hopeless about this situation. I’m thinking you are exactly right! This bill’s passage may well be the key to a return to sanity in 2010 AND 2012. It’s time to fire these rascals. Thank you for giving me a different view here.

Pass the bill, then pay tribute to Michael Jackson. Perfect. Now we know what’s really important here.

[MNReaganite]

John Kline (R-MN2) is voting no. Same with Michele Bachmann.

Collin Peterson (D-MN7) is a blue dog and chair of the agricultural committee, and has been mentioned as a swing vote. CALL HIM! His line was full when I tried.

Write your representative: https://writerep.house.gov/writerep/welcome.shtml

Uses the additional four digits on your zip code to locate your representative. If you don’t know those digits, it has links to the post office search function, so you can locate those four digits. I saved mine with the link in my favorites.

[fatrat]

I took the liberty of updating the list of fence-sitters with a city and zipcode for their district. You can call the toll free numbers at the capitol switchboard and give them the zip code of the fence-sitter you would like to register your vote with. Sic’em

It not like it is an entitlement that will be hard to undue

I wish I could be so sure. Have you read the thing, or even parts of it? I've been searching for the word "poverty" in it.

$50 Million Seems Like a Good Number

SEC. 264. LOW INCOME COMMUNITY ENERGY EFFICIENCY PROGRAM.

(a) In General- The Secretary of Energy is authorized to make grants to private, nonprofit, mission-driven community development organizations including community development corporations and community development financial institutions to provide financing to businesses and projects that improve energy efficiency; identify and develop alternative, renewable, and distributed energy supplies; provide technical assistance and promote job and business opportunities for low-income residents; and increase energy conservation in low income rural and urban communities.

(b) Grants- The purpose of such grants is to increase the flow of capital and benefits to low income communities, minority-owned and woman-owned businesses and entrepreneurs and other projects and activities located in low income communities in order to reduce environmental degradation, foster energy conservation and efficiency and create job and business opportunities for local residents. The Secretary may make grants on a competitive basis for--

(1) investments that develop alternative, renewable, and distributed energy supplies;

(2) capitalizing loan funds that lend to energy efficiency projects and energy conservation programs;

(3) technical assistance to plan, develop, and manage an energy efficiency financing program; and

(4) technical and financial assistance to assist small-scale businesses and private entities develop new renewable and distributed sources of power or combined heat and power generation.

(c) Authorization of Appropriations- For the purposes of this section there is authorized to be appropriated $50,000,000 for each of the fiscal years 2010 through 2015.

"Mission-driven community development organizations" don't seem to be likely to be ones to give up on the gravy train without violence.

Oh, call him if you can just to make a point. I know it won’t do any good, just like with mine, but let ‘em know where we stand.
