To the List:
Get out and vote Tuesday. However, don't blame the
Republicans for not voting for the Udall bill in
the last session. Blame the jokers that were in
charge of getting the bill to the floor and
scheduled for a vote.
There have been a couple of messages that effectively
blamed the Republicans for not getting the Udall bill
passed. That is simply not true! However, you can
place the blame on several Republicans and Democrats
who chose not to schedule a vote on the bill and they
should be ashamed of themselves and voted out of office.
If you choose to turn out all the Republicans, you will
dismiss 33.5% of the co-sponsors of the Udall bill in
the House and 45.2% of the co-sponsors of the bill in
the Senate. I would suggest you vote against those who
do not represent your interests.......Republicans,
Democrats or Independents alike.
Below is a table showing the voting in each congressional
house and the party distribution of Co-Sponsors. The names
of the Co-Sponsors have been made available several times
on this list.
Vote smart on Tuesday...........Jack
