Not a single Republican will vote for health care monstrosity

Rep. Eric Cantor, the Republican House Whip, said on the Capitol steps Thursday that not a single Republican will vote for Democrat Nancy Pelosi's government-run health care bill. Eyes will be on the vote ... notes will be taken of who voted for and who voted against.

Americans for Prosperity's Director of Policy, Phil Kerpen, has urged everyone to keep up the pressure on Blue Dogs and all Democrat representatives. In an email, he wrote:
Our message and our enthusiasm have clearly resonated with Republican legislators. Rep. Eric Cantor, the Republican Whip, told the crowd in Washington that not a single Republican will vote for Nancy Pelosi's Washington takeover of health care, scheduled for this Saturday.

You and I must hold the Republican legislators to this commitment. But we must also, right now, break through to wavering Democratic legislators and demand that they vote "No" this Saturday.

Please help by calling your member of Congress today. Then, encourage everyone you know to contact their member of Congress by forwarding this email to them by clicking here.

Saturday's vote will be the first real test of this grassroots campaign to protect our families' health care. We must do all we can to stop this Washington takeover from passing the House of Representatives.

You've done so much, and we've come so far in this battle. Let's make sure it counts when Congress votes tomorrow.

Thanks for all you do.

Sincerely,
Phil Kerpen
Director of Policy

P.S. Many Americans for Prosperity members sent in photos of yesterday's House Call events, and you can find some of those pictures above.

Again - please pass this message to all your family, friends and neighbors - and tell them to contact their member of Congress before tomorrow's vote on a Washington takeover of our health care.
Keep up the pressure.
