Call Your Congressional Supporters: Thank You For Standing With Us

Please take time to call your Representative and thank them for voting with working families against TAA.  And ask them to continue their support.  There is no more urgent task this week.  Our broad coalition continues to ramp up grass roots calls.


As Boehner & Obama regroup they will try to pick off our coalition.  The numbers are daunting for them, but their power and the money of corporate America is enormous.  Cabinet Secretaries all have been assigned Call Lists for this week.


Here is a list of Congressional Reps who did NOT vote our way.

Brad Ashford (NE), Ami Bera (CA), Don Beyer (VA), Earl Blumenauer (OR), Suzanne Bonamici (OR), Gerry Connolly (VA), Jim Cooper (TN), Jim Costa (CA), Henry Cuellar (TX), Susan Davis (CA), John Delaney (MD), Suzan DelBene (WA), Sam Farr (CA), Jim Himes (CT), Ruben Hinojosa (TX), Eddie Bernice Johnson (TX), Derek Kilmer (WA), Ron Kind (WI), Rick Larsen (WA), Gregory Meeks (NY), Beto O'Rourke (TX), Scott Peters (CA), Jared Polis (CO), Mike Quigley (IL), Kathleen Rice (NY), Kurt Schrader (OR), Terri Sewell (AL), and Debbie Wasserman Schultz (FL).

There are multiple scenarios on how TPA/TPP proponents may try to move forward which says it could be a long hot summer, but our next battle is holding the line at NO TAA.
