Mr. Martin, Vaya! What fabulous news! Can we get a good list of the members? I am somewhat confused as RKinds (WI) is not on the list of the 8 mems. I got from "open congress."

I am in Ron Kinds District- Wi-3 and some may know that he is on the Ways and Means. We began a letter writing campaign last month. We put together packets of letters-12 each, letters and addressed, stamped envelopes. Each new supporter will get one packet and a day assigned to send their letters each month. So far we have a month and a half accounted for or almost 2 per day. We will send 2 per day to Washington. When we reach that point we will send the next months worth to one of his home offices and then his other and so on. We encourage people to write their own letters and ask they send copies to us for all to reuse and we will keep them in a database on our website. We have hit him pretty good at listening sessions back home too so hopefully he is starting to get the message.

I'm in GA. I'd still like to send these guys letters/postcards in the mail. I don't have a printer.

Was looking at the rep's scorecard, last dated 2/18. There's a lot of names on there that need changed from "against/does not support" to "For/cosponser."

There is still time. (I like the guy that said send something every day.)

I attended the Cincinnati and the Dayton Tea Party yesterday. Randd Associates, 4725 S. Kettering Blvd, Moraine, OH 45439 provided us with signs to hold and distribute, our printed material, and the big item was red postcards with"YOUR FIRED" to be mailed to our congress. If you would be intersted in purchasing these post cards you can get in touch with Rick Dobson by e-mail at Sales@RanddAssociates.com or by phone at 937-294-1874. I understand you can see a copy of the postcard on FairTaxNation under hand-outs & flyers at the bottom of the page. Or if you were at the Tea Party in Ohio these were the RED postcards everyone wanted.

Earl, I am in!
I must do my part to make the Fair Tax a reallity!
But we must get the others to do this to have the impact we need, and time is wasting....Let's get it done!

I still stand that if all of us, 2500+ members of this site, would collectively send each member of the committee a reminder of yesterday's rally and reflect on the amount of Fair Tax supporters. Maybe, just maybe we could start turning more heads. Like yesterday it was not just one person doing the protest, but groups of Americans with a common goal. Here at this site 2500+ send 10 post cards a week, would surely remind them. I will continue this simple inexpensive means of having my say. Please join me, all of you! 10 a week, how hard can it be! If you atteneded a rally the effort was greater on your part, keep the wave rolling onto the shores and get their feet wet as well!

Enroll by making a reply and make this simple committment! You joined to make a difference, a small step, if you went to a rally, another step. Did you attend a Fair Tax meeting locally? Another step, now make another, push that wave to this committee!

Excuse me and Thank You!

I would be willing to do the post cards! I would call, write or email too!
I agree that it must be an effort by many rather than by a few! Please I am willing to help! The member of HWM cmte from NC is not in my district but willing to tackle he and others in the best way possible.
I joined this group because I know it must get out of committee to have a chance.

getting 2000 people to just sign up is one thing...getting them all to work together to to this will take some serious courting of members.

Wow our numbers are growing close to 2,000 imagine if all of us would send 10 post cards each with a different fact, 20,000 a week. I would think that would attract some attention. As our numbers grew and we continued with just 10 each, the number could be staggering!
A commitment from each member, they are assigned 10 members of the W&M, they are obligated to send 10 post cards, $2.70+cards, each week we could really demonstrate some organization and seriousness to this.
