Read the Bill ... beginning today at 8 a.m.

Read the Bill! Beginning today at 8:00 a.m., tune into www.RPV.org/ReadTheBill to hear volunteers from across Virginia read all 2,400 pages of the proposed health care bill out loud in 30-minute shifts, a process that will be ongoing day and night for almost 48 hours.

If Congressional members cannot read the bill for themselves, everyday Americans will read it for them. Organized by the Republican Party of Virginia, it will be live-streamed at RPV.org/ReadTheBill to anyone with a computer at home, work, school, Congressional offices, laptops ... anywhere.

Want to help?
I am scheduled to read from 10-10:30 a.m. Wednesday. My mom is scheduled to read from 3-3:30 p.m. Wednesday from Richmond. Won't you join us?

Folks are needed who are willing to help read the bill from home. If you are willing to volunteer to help read a few pages of the bill, please call 804-780-0111 or email Dave.Rexrode@RPV.org today and provide your name and phone number, and someone will call you to determine a specific, 30-minute shift for you to volunteer that will best help our efforts. You will be provided with a copy of the bill and a special call-in number.

Please call these Virginia Congressmen and ask them to vote NO:
Congressman Tom Perriello - (202) 225-4711
Congressman Gerry Connolly - (202) 225-1492
Congressman Glenn Nye - (202) 225-4215
