 roc5955Premium join:2005-11-26 Rosendale, NY | This was merely the cloture vote... Which ends the debate on the bill (S2248) If you really want to make a difference, get on the horn NOW to both of your senators and tell them to vote this bill down. Everyone who calls makes a difference. Want to make a bigger difference? Write a hand written letter to them, telling them to defeat S2248. It's time to take it into the streets. Demand that the senators whose salary YOU pay, serve the people, and not the corporations who give them contributions. If you don't vote for them, they would be out of a job. I'm on the horn with Schumer's office right now. Is his aide going to hear it from me... AGAIN! Hillary is next.
Don't question it, JUST DO IT, because it's the only way that we have any chance of seeing another bad piece of legislation passed, and our rights eroded even more, in the name of corporate interests. -- "Understanding is a three-edged sword." |

 3 edits | You can see who voted how in the cloture vote here: »www.senate.gov/legislative/LIS/r···te=00435
You can use this site to find how to contact your senators and encourage them to vote for telco immunity. »www.visi.com/juan/congress/
I find that FAXING to the Senator's office gets the most notice when lobbying. Here is a web page that has a few links on how to fax thru email for free: »www.savetz.com/fax/ |

 | Re: history. People need to look at the history of this,the AT&T of 2001 is AT&T broadband - local circuit switched phone and long distance. In Nov 2002 AT&T local phone & broadband merged with comcast to become AT&T/comcast, The CEO and most of the upper management are now with comcast. The issue is local phone records. AT&T is now two diff company's. SBC merged with AT&T after all this took place. YOU now have AT&T/SBC & AT&T/COMCAST. IT all needs to go away. Just fix the law for today's technology. |

Re: This was merely the cloture vote... Why the heck would I want to encourage my elected officials to vote FOR telco immunity? I do not believe that the telcos should be granted immunity, and should be held accountable for giving away our fourth amendment rights, as defined in the Constitution. After all, this is a country of laws and not corporations. -- "Understanding is a three-edged sword." |
