We expected this would clear the Judiciary Committee and shouldn't be surprised that it has. We have been communicating with out Senate and House members to let them know our expectations for their vote on this in anticipation of it coming to a Senate vote.
We need to redouble our efforts though emails, phone calls, paper letters, and personal visits to their local offices as well as any opportunity to visit them in D.C. so they fully understand that nothing in this piece of legislation is acceptable to their constituents.
Please include your House members as well as the House Judiciary Committee members since no piece of legislation becomes law without both a Senate and House vote passing it.
Look at the letters thread for ideas on what to send to them. Remember that the letters need to be brief and to the point. Identify the legislation as S150 as well as by name. Don't use vulgar, threatening, profane language. Many of our members have gotten supportive responses from their Senate and House members and those are ideal models to use for our letters to our Congresscritters.
