Next we have to send a message to the senate to kill this thing.
This is a good form letter to copy/paste/edit personalize to send to the house etc.. We crashed the phone system on fri. afternoon, lets send another strong message.

_________________________________________________________________________________
TO: <insert your representative’s name here>
FROM: The American People
REF: Your actions on June 26th, 2009 to pass the Waxman Energy and Climate Bill and the people’s response.
ATTENTION:
Wethe People want to make clear our displeasure with your actions. Your vote in the House of Representatives to pass this bill is a bittershock to all regular people across the nation. We expected you to dobetter than that.
We do not care what pressure you are under.You are paid to do a job – so do it. It is plain to us out here, livingin our homes and trying to make it from month to month, that many ofyou are either incapable or unwilling to do the job you are being paidto do. That’s unfortunate because your actions recently have resultedin higher unemployment and greater hardships for the American family.
Whatyou have done in allowing Cap and Trade (H.R. 2454) to go to the Senatewas essentially a vote against the people whom you allegedly represent.These are the same people who have seen their retirement fundsdisappear into other people’s pockets. They are the same people who canclearly see that their grocery bills are increasing. They see the priceof gas increasing and their rights and freedoms and privacy beingeroded. These are the same people who view with distaste the lies andtwisted doublespeak by elected officials and the sneering contempt withwhich these same officials refer to their people’s protests. But mostimportantly, these are the same people who will hire or fire you.
Whileyou, in your higher comfortable income bracket, may find the death ofAmerican industries amusing, we the people do not. You may not havetrouble paying your household utilities, purchasing food for yourfamily, or putting gas in your car to drive to work, but we do – and wecan see that your actions are not going to make this any easier. As youhave repeatedly made your intentions clear; that you wish to continueto take from regular people while increasing your own wealth, and thatyou wish to continue to harm our families with ridiculous actions inCongress, we now would like to make ourselves very clear.
Youwho have done these things to us will very soon feel the hardship andthe sting of what you have done this week and the months and yearspreceding. You will be repaid for all of this. When we put you out onthe street we will do it with a pen stroke, a lever pull, and a smile.When you’re finally in the real world with the rest of us, you willfind no friends here. You will be remembered and you will be despised.
Youare selling our freedom and our way of life to a progressive andrepressive government. You are helping build a dictatorship in acountry founded on freedom. You’re giving away our country’s wealth toother nations and you didn’t even do all of this with a heavy heart ora torn sense of responsibility. You simply did it for your ownpolitical advancement.
We are tired of not being represented.We are tired of being ridiculed because we disagree or because weprotest. We are tired of being marginalized and we are very tired ofwatching the gleeful destruction of America.
A revolution iscoming in this nation and you are making yourselves the target of it.It may seem unlikely to you. Our wrath may not seem real from yourlofty positions. You may feel yourselves to be untouchable, but make nomistake … we are coming. We are coming for you all and you WILL loseyour job; like millions of others.
Regards,
We the People
