It will take you less than thirty seconds! Thank you for participating. Let's reach out to key supportive lawmakers today to thank them and to encourage them to move forward.

1. Send prefilled, editable tweets to Sen. Harry Reid (HERE), Rep. Joe Barton (HERE), and Rep. John Campbell (HERE) [Rep. Barney Frank is not on Twitter].
2. Try to wait an hour or so and then send these tweets to Sen. Reid (HERE), Rep. Barton (HERE), and Rep. Campbell (HERE)
3. Send a prefilled tweet promoting today's action plan HERE.

Please reply in this thread with "tweeted", "done", etc. to encourage others to participate. Please also consider revising your profile location to indicate support for the action thread. The past 22 actions have generated triple-digit participation, so let's keep it growing. Thanks!

------------------------

Some additional information:

Great job on the Twitter messages to Sen. Reid all! We represented well over half the submitted town hall questions, which was duly noted by the Washington Post, AP, and Politico, and poker sites like PokerFuse. So, we got the attention of the senator as well as some media. Additionally, he answered our question affirmatively (at time point 9:58) :

This really shows that we are heard when we speak together with one voice.

-----------------------------------

If you wish to do more today, let's continue to reach out to the deficit super committee's new website. They asked for our input, so let's provide plenty! PPA sent out a member-wide alert on this, so we know there will be a lot of participation.

1. Go to the committee contact page HERE.
2. Fill in your name and address (AutoFill will make quick work of that).
3. If you did NOT do this yesterday, cut-and-paste the text HERE and submit. Feel free to edit or write your own, of course.
4. If you DID do this yesterday, cut-and-paste a new letter HERE and submit. Again, feel free to edit or write your own, of course.
5. Please ask your spouse, significant other, family, and friends to participate as well. Feel free to offer to help them out with it, of course.

TruFloridaGator, Jax and others are supporting the effort by giving away coaching to active participants. Please see Fight for Poker Rights/Free SNG Coaching Giveaway - New Prizes! for more.

I disagree, especially FB & Twitter where it's more about our numbers & they don't even see your location unless they look really close which they won't.
