Legislation Alert: Net Freedom

September 17, 2008

Our friends at Freedom Works are pushing for support of HR 6870 today. Read the full story on the bill here. Then, call the offices of Rep. Jeb Hensarling (R-TX) and Rep. Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) in support of the bill. It goes up for vote within an hour or two! Here is the action alert email sent out by Freedom Works today:

Your phone calls to the House Financial Services Committee have been making a difference! But now we need to turn our efforts to our good friends, and fellow conservatives, Rep. Jeb Hensarling (R-TX) and Rep. Kevin McCarthy (R-CA). They need to hear from us that we support NET FREEDOM in the form of HR 6870.

Jeb’s number is 202-225-3484.
Kevin’s number is 202-225-2915.

The vote will be extremely close and it very well could turn on these two votes!

Please take 30 seconds to let them know that you support HR 6870 for NET FREEDOM.

The vote is coming up probably within the hour. You can watch the debate live: http://boss.streamos.com/wmedia-live/financialserv/16489/300_financialserv-qwertyuiop_070131.asx

Thanks for everything you’ve done so far!

UPDATE: The bill passed in committee! We’ll keep an eye on the bill and inform you of future legislative alerts. Thanks for your swift action on this.
