systlin: dynamicsymmetry: If you live in a GOP state, for the love of God, CALL YOUR CONGRESSPERSON. Not sure who they are? Here. We’re all scared of the phone. But this is about people’s lives. It can’t be put bluntly enough: IF THE ACA/OBAMACARE IS REPEALED, PEOPLE WILL DIE. Would a script help? Here are a bunch of them. One more thing: if you’re capable of getting aggressive? Do that. Not abusive to some poor harried staffer, but very, very clear: if your congressperson votes to repeal the ACA, you will make it your mission in life to destroy them. You will campaign for their opponent (you should). You will fight to make sure other people vote for their opponent (you should). You will tell everyone who will listen that they voted to give rich people a massive tax cut while poor people get sick and die. You will do everything in your power to see that they never take office again. Why? Because one thing the last week or so has taught us is that most of these people will not do the right thing unless they’re shamed and harassed and threatened into doing so. They care about reelection. That’s it. So that’s where you need to hit them, if you can, and you need to hit hard. Call. Do it. The only way this thing gets saved is if we save it. (and follow this same strategy for just about every other stupid, evil thing your congressperson tries to do) I’ve been doing this for MONTHS and it is working, all the staffers say that they’ve NEVER IN DECADES gotten so many angry calls EVER -- source link
