These are the individuals who sit on the Subcommittee on Human
Resources of the Ways and Means Committee. Also call the Capitol
switchboard at 1-866-220-0044 and ask to speak to these members. Don’t ask, demand, that HR 589 be put through.

Re: AMERICAN 99ERS UNION Contact Ways and Means Committee TODAY!
Just FYI, Gregg's a registered member and I've granted him admin permissions so that, time allowing as he's really busy, he can drop by and set up his own spot to keep all 99ers union stuff together to help keep us up to date with their happenings.
Re: AMERICAN 99ERS UNION Contact Ways and Means Committee TODAY!
Contacted Ways and Means and Speaker Boehner demanding legislation come out of committee and onto the floor immediately. I asked AGAIN for Speaker Boehner to co-sponsor this bill.

Re: AMERICAN 99ERS UNION Contact Ways and Means Committee TODAY!
I too have been sending our letter and emails to the entire committee and worked on the Republicans this weekend, don't want to forget the Dem's so working my way through that today. Once I finish I am once again emailing the committee, I don't care if they see the same letter every day, they are getting one until they bring this to a vote.
Happy Valentines Day to ALL!

Exactly.....Maybe once they see the same message over and over again.....It will be ingrained in their minds that we need help.....

GLAD TO SEE YOU HERE!
could not understand why they closed like that...oh well
ok.................we need to hammer hard this day
remember, even if it passed today....it takes them forever to get ready to disburse money
Everyone is starting to see this bill
we need to do some free press releases or articles
also, if anyone knows the group that owned UFF...they should turn over the domain name because all of the articles linking to them are now broken links and will pull down the rankings when you write about unemployment................it can be taken over/ transfer to this account and do a redirect...this way nothing is lost.
maybe G can contact them

I agree! Let's keep sending the same message of SOS until HR589 is signed by President Obama and we all have jobs.

I heard the REPUBS moaning over the weekend that they want major cuts this year and do not want to help with extensions....does anyone have updates on this.............
HERE IS A LIST OF THE LATEST ARTICLES FOR HR589:
FROM GOOGLE
http://news.google.com/news/more?pz=1&ned=uk&ncl=dkLMBdyUZMSqFdM
http://www.examiner.com/unemployment-in-san-diego/ed-schultz-gives-powerful-99er-commentary-on-msnbc?cid=parsely#parsely
READ THIS ....SEE THAT WE NEED TO PUSH:
However, getting the bill passed will take a herculean effort that borders on the miraculous. Not one Republican has signed on to support the legislation. At present, 47 representatives have co-sponsored H.R.589. Donnie Shaw at OpenCongress.org reported that there are rumored to be at least a dozen more.
But the Democrats no longer control the House of Representatives. Getting a bill introduced -- or, as is the case here, re-introduced -- is the easy part. Getting it through a hostile chamber of Congress will be nearly impossible.

Re: AMERICAN 99ERS UNION Contact Ways and Means Committee TODAY!
This bill will have a very tough time in congress getting thru.They have to find away to get HR 589 put together with a bill that the republicans need and want to get signed in the senate.I am sure that this is what lee and her team are thinking.They can work together and get this done by march.60 cosponsers is one of the highest of all the bills that are in the ways and means at this time.I'm sure there are ways to get things done that are so very important to millions of people who are suffering at this very moment.Like myself.
