We need 60 senators to co sponsor this.. we only have 22 It won't pass even if it went up for a vote.

Cosponsors don't always equal votes. Today there were 8 cosponsors who voted against HR 459 and about 60 who didn't cosponsor but voted for HR 459.

I agree we need more cosponsors but that's not the end all be all determinant.

So what's the game? Falsely co-sponsor to throw off the sponsors confidence?

Also, let's not forget the Present-NV, they change the percentage, right?
Do we know who they are?

 

[Scott_in_PA]

Ah the good old days.....

 

[J_White]

Remember to send this Reid 1995 clip to all your Senators when you ask them to support this bill and send this to the local news media too !!

.@SenatorReid NOW believes in a private corporation controlling our money supply, harmful to those on fixed incomes/savers/middle class/poor

Whereas in 1995 @SenatorReid didn't. How weird... Should I side w the American People or Americas Bankers in a non-election year? #p2

McConnell would have killed it as well. We need to jettison McConnell too.

What a flip flopper

 

[truthspeaker]

For those of you on Twitter, I recommend using different tags to bring attention to immediate action on SB202. For example I used #Mom #family #Dad for one batch. On another I used #job #money #economy. On another I did #Occupy and #TeaParty. Please be creative. We need to grow the number of people involved bc by now every RP supporter knows about the Audit the Fed Bill. Yes, we need to get them to also push for Senate, but we need more voices b/c the Senate is less enthusiastic about the bill than the House.

lets get the Nevada GOP to start action on voting machines, to do away with it totally and bring back hand counting, then once they start their action forward this to Harry Reid to let him know we gonna hunt him down when up for re-election.

Rand needs to use Rule 14 of the Senate’s rules for this, along with Repealing Obamacare bill they pass.

+1, we must remember the problem is with both parties, and will remain so as long as both are bankrolled at the top by the banksters, the MIC and PACs (all of whom like fiat money and secret bailouts). Why didn't Congress pass a clean audit bill all those years when the Democrats were not in control, and Bush was in the White House?

You'd think Reid would want to bring it to the floor if for no other reason than to do the same thing to Romney that we are currently doing to him: bringing up a previous position to highlight the flip flop.
And the thing with the senate is that many of them were in "wait and see" mode with HR 459. Same with the house leading up to yesterday. And some cosponsors may have signed on to please their constituents, but with a little arm twisting by Bernanke, voted NAY. Some Dems vote AYE to get the independent vote in their districts. I remember last time, Pelosi waited till she was sure a certain bill wasn't going to have the votes to pass, then gave permission to the reps in heavy GOP distircts permission to vote AYE. That's why sometimes, when you're watching the vote count on C-SPAN, there are a bunch of hold-outs till the outcome is certain, then they all vote according to how it will benefit them for reelection in their own districts.

Is there anything that keeps track of when someone votes?

 

[No1butPaul]

First, people should focus on calling the Washington, D.C. office, as they handle the legislative matters. Second, there's nothing that says we can't call SEVERAL times to express our outrage that one man can circumvent the will of the people of an entire nation! It spells C-O-R-R-U-P-T-I-O-N plain and simple. What a COWARD!!!!!

 

[Tinnuhana]

Maybe contact the Dems that voted AYE in the house and ask them if their colleagues in the senate will also vote AYE. Pressure from their own side of the aisle.
