Help Wanted

Matt Zuvich, our lobbyist, wanted you to receive the following information.

Greetings to all!

If folks can take a minute, some e-mails and hot line calls would really do a lot of good over the next couple of days. If you see a legislator that is your home district on the list below please communicate with them and thank them for their vote on revenue. All the legislators named took this difficult vote despite what may be their natural inclinations. We need to get as many constituent communications as we can muster by Sunday, thanking them for their yes vote on revenue in the house. You know big business is telling them not to vote for revenue, so we need to make sure that they hear the other side. A vote on revenue is one of the ways legislators are able to say NO to the closure of RHCs and other vital institutions like Maple Lane School and state mental health hospitals.

Here are the names:
Appleton
Blake
Dunshee
Finn
Flannigan
Goodman
Haigh
Linville
Maxwell
Morris
O'Brien
Orwall
Rolfes (The speaker made a point to note that this was a HARD vote for Christine! Double Kudos)
Springer
Sullivan
Takko
Wallace

Sample Message: "Thank you for your courageous vote for revenue. We recognize that by making that vote you are protecting many who can't protect themselves."

Hotline calls (800.562.6002) or e mails will work. Emphasis is on communication from within the district, so it is important that if you know someone not on this mailing who lives in the above named districts, please ask them to take the time to send some communication.
