| Members of Congress have been home for just a few days, and they’re already facing increased pressure from insurance companies, special interests, and partisan attack organizations that are spending millions to block health insurance reform. These groups are using scare tactics and spreading smears about the President’s plan for reform, trying to incite constituents into lashing out at their representatives and disrupting their events. The goal of these disruptions is for a few people to get a lot of media attention and hijack the entire public discourse. If they succeed, all Americans — Democrats, Republicans, and Independents — will continue to struggle under the broken status quo. It’s up to us to show Congress that those loudly opposing reform are a tiny minority being stirred up by special interests, and that a huge majority strongly supports enacting real health insurance reform in 2009. Your representative, Dean Heller, needs to hear that voters are demanding health insurance reform this year. Can you call the local office in Reno? Let the person who answers know that you’re a constituent. Then tell them: “Please fight for real health insurance reform in 2009. Americans are suffering under the current system and need change.” According to our records, you live in Nevada’s 2nd congressional district. Please call: Rep. Dean Heller at 775-686-5760. Once you’ve made your call, click here to report it. (Not your representative? Click here to look yours up.) Calling should only take a few minutes, but it’s a huge help. These local offices serve as the main connection between a member of Congress and voters in the district. And with representatives home on recess, the staff there are in daily contact with your member, keeping them updated on how many calls they receive that are for or against reform. Once you’ve called, please tell us. Knowing how many calls are coming in from all around the country will help us better plan our campaign — and help us show that the American people overwhelmingly want health insurance reform this year. Let us know you called: http://my.barackobama.com/districtcall3?district=NV2&postal_code=89501 Thanks, Mitch Mitch Stewart Director Organizing for America
