I called my Republican Congressman & Senator, here's my short message to both:


I told my PA Rep. Scott Perry and Senator Pat Toomey that I was distressed to hear that such a fiscal hawk who vote to add at least a Trillion in debt for no apparent reason. And that my only conclusion was that they have to vote for the bill to pay back their donors.

I got to Perry's York office on first try. The woman who answered the phone was very polite as was the gentleman who answered at Toomey's office in Allentown after about 5 tries.

Everyone please keep calling!

I told them the tax bill is a gift to the investment class on the back of the working class.

=====
The Senate is voting on the GOP tax bill Tuesday afternoon. If you have time, & it only takes a few minutes, call these GOP senators, who have expressed ambivalence or concern about the bill.
