This looks like we will get attention from Representative Scheikert's office. He supports the elimination of the one dollar bill and its replacement by a coin. He explains his support of this unpopular action by claiming it would save the government $180 million per year. A man who thinks like this will certain be interested in the increase revenue from HR2366.

TC: Great daily action!

Oh, and Carson Richards, too (just beneath Weber). But please don't make a comment on that page unless you are from Arizona. We don't want to be pests there. This is specifically for townhall questions. We want Arizona constituents to be heard, which includes some poker players. Thanks!

Weekend of October 15th, 2011

Let's continue our outreach to some less-than-supportive CA lawmakers this weekend, as they need to see that we really care and that we are motivated enough to make our voices heard. It takes just 30 seconds:
  1. Send a prefilled, editable pro-poker Twitter message to anti-poker Sen. Barbara Boxer (D-CA) HERE and Rep. Tom McClintock (R-CA) HERE (Sen. Feinstein is not on Twitter).
  2. Wait at least an hour, then send these Twitter messages to Sen. Boxer HERE and Rep. McClintock HERE (if you can't wait an hour, it's better to send all of these at once than not at all).
  3. Wait at least one more hour, then send these Twitter messages to Sen. Boxer HERE and Rep. McClintock HERE.
  4. Let's continue to make and like pro-poker posts on anti-poker Sen. Feinstein's (D-CA) Facebook wall HERE, Sen. Boxer's wall HERE, and Rep. McClintock's wall HERE, with focus on the pro-poker posts HERE, HERE, and HERE. There are many new pro-poker comments since your last visit, so let's get 'em all liked!
  5. Send a prefilled tweet promoting the weekend action plan HERE.
Please reply in this thread with "posted", "done", etc. to encourage others to participate. The past 47 actions have generated triple-digit participation, so let's keep it growing. Thanks!
