The House will be voting tomorrow on the $54 billion budget reconciliation measure. The vote is expected to be close, as a number of moderate Republicans have voiced their concerns over cutting Medicaid, including the ANWR provision, and/or not effectively cutting the deficit by passing the bill along with a proposed tax reconciliation measure. All Democrats are opposed to the bill. You need to call your representatives today and talk to them about voting against the budget reconciliation bill. You can reach them by calling 1-800-426-8073. Even if you know your representative is voting against the bill, please let them know that you support their vote. If your representative is one of the many moderate Republicans who oppose including ANWR in the bill, let them know that even if ANWR is stripped, it is likely to be included once the bill goes through conference with the Senate. We have a chance to stop the budget reconciliation bill, and your calls today are an extremely important part of the fight.
