[Peace-discuss] Call Durbin: Urge strong support for public option

[Jenifer Cartwright]

I've called Durbin's office a number of times, but ea time, the recording sez due to large number of calls, call back later, so I do... And I've yet to be able to get thru. (When I called the Springfield number, it turned out to be a fax, so that didn't work either.)
 
Oops, just redialed and it went thru! My msg (to a real live person) was that Durbin's statement that the banks ran DC was truthful and brave, so kudos there. Ditto his initial support for public option, extreme disappointment that he felt he had to waver on that, encouragement that he stick to his guns and convince others to do so as well. Ta da.

[From True Majority:]

As many of you likely saw, Senator Durbin wavered this weekend on
national TV when pushed on the public option. Durbin stated that he
would be willing to support other bills on health care reform,
including the infamous (and intolerable) co-op plan. As TrueMajority
members we cannot let actions like these go unnoticed.

We need to take rapid response action and let Durbin know he needs to
fight to keep public option on the table.

Please call Senator Durbin's office as soon as possible in Washington,
DC. Ask for the aide in charge of Health Care and draw from the
following script:
