List of Wobbly Republicans
By Wendy Herman, TCOT Project Servant Leader
IT IS TIME FOR A FILIBUSTER!! These are the wobbly Republicans. We have had issues with reaching some of their offices, so we recommend faxes and phone calls to their state offices. That information is at the bottom of the page. Now is not the time to grow weary. We are making a difference. If you heard President Obama's speech last night or Harry Reid's from the Senate floor, you know we are VERY close to shutting this thing down. Please do what ever you can to bring about the demise of this bill.

"Hello, my name is __________, and I am a member of a conservative social media group called Top Conservatives on Twitter. Because this bill is too large and will be ineffective in boosting the economy, I'm calling today to ask the senator to filibuster this bill. It is a poorly written piece of legislation, I don't like all the wasteful spending and the way it is being rushed to a vote is wrong. Please let Senator ______ know that I would like for him/her to NOT COMPROMISE, but lead the charge and defeat this bill with a filibuster."

To the Honorable Senator _________,
RE: FILIBUSTER
My name is ____________, and I am a member of a conservative social media group called Top Conservatives on Twitter. Because this bill is full of wasteful spending and will not effectively boost the economy, and will be more expensive than the Iraq and Afghanistan wars combined, I am writing today to ask you to NOT COMPROMISE, but kill this bill. It is a bill that is being marketed as an immediate response to a national emergency, but many economist have agreed that it will do nothing but prolong the recession. It is a poorly written bill that cannot be fixed. It must be defeated and started anew. I urge you to keep the country's best interest, and not the desires of liberal interest groups, in mind and defeat this bill.
Sincerely,
