 DON'T LET SENATE GOP PLAY POLITICAL GAMES WITH OBAMACARE REPEAL! RISE UP NOW & DEMAND AN END TO OBAMACARE! In what can only be seen as a shallow, coldly calculated political move, some influential Republican Senators are BLOCKING an ObamaCare vote in the upper chamber because they fear Democrats might actually vote for repeal of ObamaCare.YOU READ THAT RIGHT – Senate REPUBLICANS are preventing Senate DEMOCRATS from joining our drive to repeal ObamaCare.  In recent days it has been widely reported that Senate Republicans "worry that voting again on repeal will give vulnerable Democratic Senators a chance to change their positions and vote for" repeal of ObamaCare.Isn't that what America has wanted all along – to get the Democrats to dump the dirty deal that is murdering the best healthcare system the world has ever known? We must present our arguments, and show our resolve to the American people from the well of the Senate floor. We cannot ever reach a 60 vote majority in the Senate without first earning a 50+1 vote! Why would Senate Republicans want to PREVENT Senate Democrats from changing their vote? APPARENTLY SOME SENATE REPUBLICANS ARE MORE WILLING TO PURSUE POWER PLAYS, AND ASSIGN POLITICAL CREDIT & BLAME, THAN TO PURSUE THE HARD WORK OF MAKING THE CASE FOR REPEALING OBAMACARE AND SAVING AMERICA! REPEALING OBAMACARE IS THE SINGLE MOST IMPORTANT ISSUE IN OUR COUNTRY, YET THERE ARE REPUBLICANS IN THE SENATE WHO WOULD RATHER PLAY POLITICS THAN END OBAMACARE ONCE AND FOR ALL! Thankfully, our unprecedented advocacy efforts are putting our nation on the path of full and complete repeal of ObamaCare, and we have committed to work with Mitch McConnell and all who keep faith with us to ACHIEVE REPEAL – PARTISAN POLITICS OR NOT. Washington MUST do its duty to our nation. The American people are behind us. Even a growing number of Democrats are behind us. Yet, be advised, certain forces within the establishment GOP are attempting to stymie our efforts, all for a typical DC power play. THE WILL OF THE PEOPLE MUST BE OBEYED AND AMERICA MUST BE SAVED! I am talking every day very directly and very frankly with Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell's office – and we must empower the drive for repeal, and ensure that he keep his commitment to represent our voice, and bring an energetic campaign for full repeal of ObamaCare to a vote. This is NOT a fight for the frail or faint-hearted; and at every level of America's peril these are not days for "Sunshine Patriots" who are only willing to take the field when the weather is mild and the sun is shining. Now is the moment for the progress we've made to be built and rallied upon, and for those smaller triumphs to give us the strength and determination we need to keep going until we are fully victorious. We have a President to defeat and a nation to repair. We have to inspire and embolden American voters to believe they can take the Senate and keep the House, and can reclaim history – or our country will change into something destructive and diminished that won't be undone for a long, long time.  When Restore America's Voice first heard of announced plans by Senator McConnell to WITHHOLD any REPEAL vote until after the November general elections, we issued a press release letting him know – in no uncertain terms – this was UNACCEPTABLE; that we would unleash our 2.3 million activists and call for his leadership resignation immediately if these plans were followed.And, in fairness to the Minority Leader, when word of our response reached Senator McConnell his Chief of Staff called at once and personally assured me that they certainly still have the "intent" to bring repeal of ObamaCare to a vote before November 6th. However, never underestimate the power of the political "establishment" to say one thing and then do another. Like Ronald Reagan used to say, we must "Trust, but verify" by continuing to put pressure on Senator McConnell, as Senate Republican Leader, to bring repeal of ObamaCare to a vote. For that reason, I need you to immediately sign our PETITION TO BRING REPEAL OF OBAMACARE TO A VOTE which will be sent to Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell and every other Republican Senator. We must put them on notice that the 2.3 million members of Restore America's Voice will hold them accountable for their actions. If Senator McConnell does bow to the compulsions of "politics as usual" in a divided conference, and fails to bring ObamaCare to a vote, we are on record to forcefully, immediately call for his resignation as Minority Leader. We need all hands on deck to push us over the goal line to REPEAL VICTORY, and we need team leaders who do not shrink from this contest! We need to continue to awaken the American people to the threats of ObamaCare, and rally resistance! And we need YOUR support to do this – please fax the Senate and add your much needed donation now! Every dollar we receive will go right to the front lines of the battles ahead. Without you, we can do nothing. However, with you and the support of our 2.3 million member team, we can and WILL repeal ObamaCare, save our country, and save our liberty and prosperity! Thank you and may God Bless America!
