First key vote on Senate ObamaCare Saturday

The first critical vote on Harry Reid's version of ObamaCare will take place tomorrow (Saturday).
Reid needs 60 votes in support of his "motion to proceed" to the floor debate on his ObamaCare bill. That means 60 Senators must vote with Reid even though they were shut out of the process and have only been given a few days to look at this over 2,000-page monstrosity.
We have posted several resources for you on ResistNet,
including the full bill text, the "top line facts," and an
itemization of more than a half-trillion dollars in new
taxes. Go here:

+ + Today's actions
Thanks to so many Grassfire friends who have already taken action, tens of thousands of personal letters are flooding Senate offices by fax and hand-delivery right now.
In fact, we cannot take any more fax orders before the vote on Saturday. So we're asking everyone to do two things:
+ + Action #1 -- Call your two Senators
Please call your senators and let them know what you think about ObamaCare and the fast-tracked Reid bill:
Or, call the switchboard and ask for your Senator by name: 202-224-3121.
Be sure to tell your Senators that you live in their state or district.
+ + Action # 2 -- Forward this to your friends
The vote will take place on Saturday, scheduled for 8pm. This is the first key vote on Reid's ObamaCare bill -- the first high hurdle that Reid must cross.
Please alert your friends. Forward this message to them. Encourage them to access the resources at ResistNet and to call their Senators.
Again, in this first key Senate vote, clearly the odds are against us. But we must stand. Thanks for taking action.
