Fwd: Boehner and Cantor Surrender... Again

Dear Erick, John Boehner and Eric Cantor are planning on a surrender on the debt limit fight THIS MORNING. Please read the message below from John Tate that details their cowardly plans. Afterwards, call Boehner, Cantor, and YOUR Representative IMMEDIATELY and DEMAND they vote "NO" on a debt ceiling increase. Speaker Boehner - (202) 225-0600 Majority Leader Cantor - (202) 225-4000 Rep. Rep. Cory Gardner - (202) 225-4676 In Liberty, Teri C Dear Teri, Just hours ago, Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid announced he will postpone his assault on the filibuster until Thursday. This battle is far from over, but thanks to your consistent action and quick work to turn up the pressure, it's clear Harry Reid is scrambling to find the votes he needs. But right now, there's another all-out EMERGENCY C4L needs your help to combat. Tomorrow, in a push led by Speaker John Boehner and Majority Leader Eric Cantor, the U.S. House is scheduled to vote on a plan to increase the debt limit by... infinity. You see, passage of this scheme would hand President Obama a blank check to spend whatever he can get through Congress before this summer! That's why it's vital you give Speaker Boehner, Majority Leader Cantor, and your U.S. Representative a piece of your mind IMMEDIATELY! Only weeks ago, as they caved in to President Obama's demands for higher spending and increased taxes, Republican leadership told you and me not to worry. Sure, our nation is mired in over $16 TRILLION of debt. Sure, it's common sense that Congress needs to rein in its reckless, drunken spending. But first, they had to cave in to President Obama on economy-crushing higher taxes (and just you never mind that their plan hiked spending, too)... The good news, we were told, was the new debt ceiling fight would surely give fiscal conservatives the "leverage" they'd been seeking to cut spending! Now, those outright LIES have been totally exposed. It seems Speaker Boehner and Eric Cantor are afraid to EVER stand up to President Obama and Harry Reid's demands for more spending. In fact, under this new scheme, whatever new spending hikes, massive new boondoggles, and outrageous new assaults on our liberties President Obama can ram through an increasingly compliant Congress by May 19 will be automatically funded with borrowing increases. And with the Federal Reserve eager to buy up as much debt as they can with dollars created out of thin air, I fear what this could mean to our already fragile economy. That's why it's vital you take action right away! Please call House Speaker John Boehner and Majority Leader Eric Cantor at once. Tell them exactly what you think of this new scheme to grow government, chicken out from taking a stand again, and stick you with the bill – and do not mince words. While you're at it, call your U.S. Representative. Tell your Representative to vote "NO!" on this radical scheme before it's too late. Our window to make our voices heard is rapidly closing, so please act at once! In Liberty, John Tate President P.S. Tomorrow, in a push led by Speaker John Boehner and Majority Leader Eric Cantor, the U.S. House is scheduled to vote on a plan to increase the debt ceiling by... infinity. That's why it's vital you contact Speaker Boehner and Majority Leader Cantor and demand they abandon this radical scheme. Please also contact your U.S. Representative and make your opinion clearly known. And if you possibly can - especially considering the statists' nonstop assaults taking place in Congress this month - please chip in $10 or $20 to ensure Campaign for Liberty has the resources needed to fight back and win. Your support is crucial to defeating the statists' schemes.

Act Now to Stop Red Light Cameras in Colorado

Dear Erick, More accidents. Private companies working with local governments to bilk the public out of millions. Little to no recourse if falsely accused. Biased review processes. Worst of all... they’re not even constitutional...   ... They’re Big Brother “gotcha” cameras mounted at intersections all over Colorado.  Campaign for Liberty has been leading the fight nationwide to remove these unconstitutional and dangerous cameras from the country’s streets and intersections – and now you have the chance to do just that in Colorado. And the fight is going down tomorrow!   On Wednesday, January 22, at 1:30 PM, the Colorado State Senate will hold a hearing on SB13-035. This bill is sponsored by State Senator Scott Renfroe, and it would eliminate the use of automated vehicle identification systems for traffic law enforcement (Red Light Cameras.)   That’s why I need you to TAKE ACTION at once.   You see, leadership in the State Senate is quietly trying to kill this bill by sticking it in the Senate State, Veterans, & Military Affairs Committee. Colorado Campaign for Liberty needs your grassroots pressure to prevent this bill from meeting an early grave.   If you want to get rid of Big Brother’s Red Light Cameras, it is absolutely vital you call ALL State Senators in the Senate State, Veterans, & Military Affairs Committee and demand they pass SB13-035 out of the committee so it can receive an up-or-down vote on the Senate floor.   Larry Crowder (R) – 303-866-4875 Angela Giron (D) – 303-866-4878 Ted Harvey (R) – 303-866-4881 Evie Hudack (D) – 303-866-4840 Matt Jones (D) – 303-866-5291   You and I must stand together against the fleecing of our communities by private companies working hand-in-glove with corrupt politicians.   Time is running out on a bill that would eliminate the use of red light cameras in Colorado, so please call ALL the State Senators listed above and demand they pass Senator Scott Renfroe’s SB13-035 out of committee.   In Liberty, Matt Holdridge Colorado State Coordinator   P.S. Colorado Campaign for Liberty needs your grassroots pressure to prevent SB13-035 from meeting an early grave.   Please call ALL the State Senators listed above and demand they pass Senator Scott Renfroe’s SB13-035 out of committee.

Fwd: It Could All End TODAY

Dear Erick, The fight against Obama's Big Government agenda could hinge on the filibuster battle going down TODAY! Please read the email below from John Tate discussing this VITAL fight. Then call both of your U.S. Senators IMMEDIATELY and demand they say NO to Harry Reid's assault on the filibuster. In Liberty, Teri C Dear Teri, Never-ending debt ceiling increases. Higher taxes. Out-of-control spending. Massive expansions of the police state. A Big Brother takeover of the Internet. Total gun bans... Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid has a plan to force Obama's Big Government agenda on the American people, and it begins by destroying the Senate filibuster. And he's willing to flat-out break Senate rules and longstanding traditions to achieve his goal. Today, Harry Reid is expected to destroy Senate minority rights and turn the Senate into nothing more than a rubber-stamp for Obama's statist agenda. This war isn't months away, or even weeks away. This fight is going down TODAY! Campaign for Liberty is mobilizing a grassroots army of liberty-minded Americans to defeat this dangerous scheme, but we need your help. It is absolutely vital you call both of your U.S. Senators at the numbers below and demand they say NO to Harry Reid's assault on the filibuster. Sen. Michael Bennet - (202) 224-5852 Sen. Mark Udall - (202) 224-5941 You and I must stand up to this insidious scheme and protect ourselves from a statist legislative monopoly. It was the filibuster that defeated "Cap-and-Tax," Card Check Forced Unionism, and the so-called "Disclose Act," just to name a few. And it may be the filibuster that stops Barack Obama, Dianne Feinstein, and Harry Reid's upcoming assault on the Second Amendment. Time is running out, so please call both of your U.S. Senators right away and demand they say NO to Harry Reid's assault on the filibuster. You and I must not allow Harry Reid to destroy our last line of defense against the statists' Big Government power grabs in the U.S. Senate. In Liberty, John Tate President P.S.

And please chip in $50, $25, or whatever you can afford to help C4L continue to fight the statists' Big Government schemes.

Fw: There's a threat lurking behind the scenes. . .

Erick, Never-ending debt ceiling increases. Massive expansions of the police state. A Big Brother takeover of the Internet. Total gun bans. The death of the filibuster is a dream come true for the statists - but it's a nightmare for you and me. Please take a moment to read John Tate's email below about Mitch McConnell "brokering a deal" with Harry Reid to effectively GUT the filibuster. I spent the past 15 years working in Ron Paul's congressional office, and my Capitol Hill sources tell me the rumors are true - Mitch McConnell is caving in to pressure from Harry Reid. Apparently, while Republicans in Congress spent the past week on a GOP retreat, Mitch McConnell was busy preparing a retreat of his own. C4L is mobilizing a grassroots army of millions of liberty-minded Americans to defeat this dangerous scheme, and I can tell you from firsthand experience C4L knows exactly what it takes to get the job done. John Tate is prepared to light up the phone lines of fence-riding Senators all day Monday and Tuesday before the vote takes place. So please make a generous contribution of $200, $150, $50, $35 - or whatever you are able to give at the moment - to help C4L stop Mitch McConnell and Harry Reid from watering down or gutting the filibuster. You and I must not allow them to take away our last line of defense against the statists' Big Government power grabs. Please help fight back immediately. In Liberty, Norm Singleton Vice President of Policy P.S. Please be sure to call Senator Mitch McConnell and give him an earful (see the email from John Tate below). From: John Tate [john.f.tate@campaignforliberty.com] Sent: Friday, January 18, 2013 4:35 PM Subject: There's a threat lurking behind the scenes. . . Dear Norm, It's easy to blame Barack Obama and his statist pals in Washington for the mess our country is in right now. After all, they make no bones about supporting higher taxes, out-of-control spending, and downright relentless attacks on our God-given liberties. But sometimes, there's a silent threat lurking behind the scenes that no one seems to notice. . . . . . And that's the Republican "leadership" in Congress, who are all too willing to sell our liberties down the river in the name of political expediency, bipartisanship, or "getting things done." Unfortunately, according to inside sources, Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell is scheming behind the scenes with Harry Reid to water down and weaken the Senate filibuster - effectively gutting it in the process. So please call Mitch McConnell IMMEDIATELY at (202) 224-2541 and demand he stop attempting to "broker deals" with Harry Reid. The Senate filibuster has been an indispensable tool in stopping some of the worst of the statists' Big Government power grabs over the years. It was the filibuster that defeated "Cap-and-Tax," Card Check Forced Unionism, and the so-called "Disclose Act," just to name a few. And it may be the filibuster that stops Barack Obama, Dianne Feinstein, and Harry Reid's upcoming assault on the Second Amendment. Without the filibuster, it'll be virtually impossible for liberty-minded Senators like Mike Lee and Rand Paul to fight against the statists' power grabs. The good news is, Senate offices are being flooded with faxes from C4L members and supporters voicing their opposition to Harry Reid's rule-breaking scheme. Feeling the heat, fence-riding Senators are waffling. They know as well as you and I do that there will be a political price to pay for helping destroy the filibuster. But instead of doubling down on their opposition to so-called "filibuster reform," the GOP establishment is preparing to offer Harry Reid a "deal." And make no mistake, any "deal" is all but guaranteed to effectively gut the filibuster. In fact, one of the "deals" being discussed would allow ONLY party and committee leaders to filibuster and offer amendments to legislation. That's why it's vital you call Senator Mitch McConnell today and DEMAND he fight back against any attempt to weaken the filibuster. Norm, if you don't think the GOP leadership will "compromise" with Harry Reid on something as important as the filibuster - think again. It wasn't that long ago that Mitch McConnell and House Speaker John Boehner caved in and sold out taxpayers during the fiscal cliff battle. And it was only a few days ago when John Boehner cut a deal on Hurricane Sandy relief, allowing a bill chocked-full of even more out-of-control spending to pass the House. You and I must not allow the GOP establishment to get away with selling out on something as crucial and important as the Senate filibuster. So please call Senator Mitch McConnell at (202) 224-2541 IMMEDIATELY. Tell him you've NEVER been more disappointed in a GOP boss than right now, and DEMAND he stop scheming with Harry Reid to water down or weaken the Senate filibuster. This fight is expected to take place on Tuesday, so there's not a moment to waste. Please call Senator Mitch McConnell right now. And if you don't get through the first time, leave a message and keep calling until someone answers. This is one battle you and I can not afford to lose. In Liberty, John Tate President P.S. If at all possible, please consider chipping in $5, $10 - or even $15 - to help Campaign for Liberty stop Mitch McConnell and Harry Reid from gutting the Senate filibuster.
