It's time to start putting maximum pressure on our senators to get it to the floor for vote and to vote FOR it, without dilution.
Livelink for Audit the Fed bill vote coming up soon (after vote now happening)

we should be able to bring pressure in South Dakota.
Take your guess. These are the 13 Republicans who didn't cosponsor the bill:
Rep Boehner, John [OH-8]
Rep Brady, Kevin [TX-8]
Rep Cantor, Eric [VA-7]
Rep Dold, Robert [IL-10]
Rep Issa, Darrell [CA-49]
Rep King, Peter [NY-49]
Rep Nunes, Devin [CA-21]
Rep Reichert, David [WA-8]
Rep Rivera, David [FL-25]
Rep Roby, Martha [AL-2]
Rep Ryan, Paul [WI-1]
Rep Southerland, Steve [FL-2]
Rep Turner, Robert [NY-9]

Meh, we have people in Nevada. We'll have to start a full court press.

I'd say Cantor but he is such a slime I'd expect him to vote for it just to cover himself with coloration.

Peter King would be my bet. I'm pretty sure Darrell Issa supported it

Boxer cosponsored it in 2010. We in CA have to point that out and make a big point of it. Everyone has to figure how best to work on their senators, and activate email lists.

Maybe King, but he answers to tea partiers in Iowa. Dunno.

letter to senator said:
There's a lot of things we can do to get this passed in the Senate.
1. Everyone needs to call/email their own two Senators.
2. We need to encourage South Dakota supporters to pressure Tim Johnson to bring up the bill in the Senate Banking Committee.
3. We can email/tweet all South Dakota local news to get them to report on the bill and possibly interview Tim Johnson since he's the one holding up the popular Audit the Fed bill.
4. We need to get liberal media/bloggers to pressure the Dems.
5. Many Senators will be holding town halls during the month long August recess. It is a MUST that we have people attend and question their Senators on S. 202.

I am absolutely sure it WAS NOT Issa. He spoke out in favor of it, opposes SOPA/PIPA, is quite friendly to the liberty movement.
Reichert, Roby, Rivera, King, Dold would be my suspects. I'm betting it's Dold or King because their districts are more Democratic.
It's much easier to buy off the Senate. 335 less payouts and blackmails to be made....
Good work on getting it passed everyone! Now onto the Senate. We don't have a lot of time.

Peter King is from New York, not Iowa. Steve King is from Iowa...he co-sponsored the bill.
Roll call vote:

Robert Turner [NY-9] is the lone Republican to vote against. He took over Anthony Weiner's seat.

The roll call is out! http://clerk.house.gov/evs/2012/roll513.xml
The RINO was Robert Turner of New York. He tried running in the senate primary and was defeated, so he won't be coming back to the 113th Congress. So nobody will have to work to kick him out. He's off to retirement.
