ACTION 235: Tax Scam Can Be Stopped: Here's How

The House has to vote a second time this week

This tax bill can still be stopped.

Everything you need is right here.

The same version of the bill now needs to be passed in both the House and Senate. This week both chambers are actually getting a chance to read what is in there and have to hash out the details.

Now is the time to contact your House of Representative members, most of whom are up for re-election next year, and tell them why you won’t vote for them if they vote for the plan.

What you can do
  1. FIND OUT HOW YOUR REP VOTED by scrolling to the bottom of this article. Don't know who your rep is? Check by your zip code here. Call him or her and use one of the scripts below according to how they voted.

  2. START A CALL CHAIN WITH FRIENDS Ask 5 people to call and forward them this email with instructions. Triple points if they live in a "swing district."

USE THIS SCRIPT (feel free to ad-lib, of course)

If they voted "No:"
I want to thank my Representative for voting no to Trump's disastrous tax scam and ask them to please do whatever is possible to slow the reconciliation process so that other representatives can have the time to read and actually realize how terrible this new tax code is for most Americans.

If they voted "Yes""
I want to ask my Representative to please reconsider their position on the tax bill. If they don't make some effort to create a better bill that does not gut the Affordable Care Act and cut the corporate tax rate then they will not have my vote in the 2018 midterm elections.
