[Theodore R.]

Won’t happen, people in MI haven’t understood economics for decades.

[John in Wisconsin]

Was surprised to see Petrie (R -WI) on the list. Just called his office and was told he has not made a decision yet, as he has a lot of issues to consider. This is just amazing. Big news story in the Fox Valley today is Mercury Marine (Big Fond du Lac employer) is thinking of closing down and moving to OK. Petrie’s office is less than 2 miles from that Mercury plant.

I’ve emailed all members of Repub Women’s Club to call this Congresswoman ASAP.

My email would not ‘go through’ cause I didn’t belong to a Fla Congressman’s District. This drives me crazy.
When I call I tell them their vote affects ALL of us!!

"The stink surrounding the Pelosi-Waxman-Markey cap-and-tax bill has become vomit-inducing overnight. Representative Waxman has decided to replace the 1091-page bill with a 300-page bill that will be debated for no longer than three hours today. So your elected representatives will have virtually no time to debate the merits of an economy-spanning bill they will not have had time to read. Speaker Pelosi and her sidekick Waxman are displaying nothing more than complete contempt for the democratic process."

Frankly it might just be better if this passes...

It not like it is an entitlement that will be hard to undue, and when everyone has to start paying 2 or 3 times more for gas, electricity, water, and everything else under the sun the democrats will be blamed universally and be thrown out of office in 2010. At which point this can be easily repealed to an avalanche of praise from everyone.

The KEY and this is CRITICAL is that the democrats are seen as pushing this through over the objections of republicans, that way blaim can be squarely placed on the liberal idiots.

oops I’m slippin....thanks

Just got off the phone with my rep.’s DC office (Lincoln Davis - Dem - TN04).

She said he will vote no. Her tone was not so friendly. I took this to mean she’s been spending a lot of time answering the phone.

Keep it up!!!

[Diana in Wisconsin]

Start dialing, Wisconsin! :)

06.26.09-10:00 ET: LATEST UPDATE:

Waxman-Markey American Clean Energy and Security Act (ACES) H.R. 2454

The House Rules Committee met at 2:50 a.m. ET and agreed that a debate would occur on the floor later today for at least three hours. This step was delayed for hours as senior leaders met to work out details following a struggle to line up enough votes. The final step is a vote today. 218 votes are needed to pass the Bill. Democrats hold 256 seats, but a number of the party's ranks have said they will vote "no" out of concern over the effect on their regions.

FlAttorney and two other partners from our law firm left for D.C. Thursday morning to arm twist for No votes. His brother's Houston based law firm sent five partners and attorneys. Many other GOP related law firms have done the same. The latest information is the House Democrats do not have the votes necessary to pass ACES. But, in high stakes politics this means nothing.
