Help From A Democratic Congressional Aid

A Democratic Congressional aid and a reader of this blog phoned me just a bit ago thanking me for trying. He also offered this opinion.

"The only thing that can possibly derail this bill is to find a sympathetic Senator or Congressman willing to stand up for justice. You need to organize a massive phone in to that person's office. The one thing any Congressman understands is the phone ringing off the hook. You also must provide an alternative. Asking Congress to do nothing simply will not fly."
