Subject: UPDATE: Stop Joe Lieberman.Dear Tom,
It’s completely outrageous. Over the weekend, Joe Lieberman said that it would be better to do nothing than to pass a health care bill that included a public option.
Lieberman enjoys a number of privileges bestowed upon him by the Democratic leadership in the Senate. They need to make it crystal clear to Joe Lieberman that his actions have consequences and that if he tries to sink health care reform by filibustering the public option, he’ll lose his committee chairmanship. The same ought to go for any senator who filibusters the public option.
On Wednesday, CREDO is joining with some of our progressive allies to deliver that message to the Senate. Already, over 116,690 people have joined you in signing our petition calling on the Senate Democratic leadership to strip any senator who filibusters the public option of his or her committee chairmanship. We want to deliver as many signatures as we can. Can you help us reach 125,00 signatures by Wednesday by spreading the word?
Thank you for fighting for health care reform.
