YOUR HELP IS

NEEDED NOW! Please do not ignore.

 

The U.S. Senate's version of the

'Health Care' bill is scheduled to be voted on by the U.S. House of

Representatives this week.

 

THIS BILL IS

LOADED WITH FUNDING FOR TOTALITARIAN PSYCHIATRIC SCREENING PROGRAMS!

 

Examples:

 

 

 

1) Funding for community based "Health Teams,"

which will establish a system of early identification and referral for

children at risk for developmental or behavioral problems.

 

2) Allocation of up to $5 billion every year for School Based Health Clinics to provide such services as: mental health assessments (screening), crisis intervention,

treatment, counseling and referral to emergency

psychiatric care.

 

3) Program for the Center for Disease Control to provide public health "interventions," screenings and clinical

referrals for individuals between 55 and 64 years of age.

 

4) The creation of a new "paraprofessional child and adolescent mental health worker." The legislation states that this is

"an individual who is not a mental or behavioral health

service professional, but who works at the first stage of

contact with children and families who are seeking mental or behavioral

health services."

 

The vote

looks like it will be very close and will be decided by those still 'on

the fence' and undecided. A 'surgical strike' is our best strategy.

 

A list of those House members publicly

known to be undecided (as of last week) are listed below with their

D.C. office phone numbers.

 

WE NEED

YOU TO CALL THE HOUSE MEMBERS BELOW:

 

These may

be the most important calls you ever make becasue of the long term

consequences of this bill.

 

Its easy:

 

1. Call the number next to the

Congressman's name. You can try this weekend (3/13)

and leave voice message but box mail be full. Call 3/15.

2. A receptionist will answer (or voice

mail).

3. Tell them you are calling to urge

the Congressman (woman) to vote NO (against) the Health Care bill.

4. Be civil, but tell them if the

Congressman votes yes you will be forced to support their opponent in

the next election.

5. FORWARD THIS EMAIL TO OTHERS.

 

IF LINES ARE BUSY PLEASE KEEP TRYING.

PLEASE TARGET TO HAVE ALL CONTACTED BY END OF DAY MONDAY 3/15.

 

THANKS!!!

Rep. Bart Stupak 202-225-4735

vote against the current bill if the abortion language is not changed.

 

Rep. Kurt Schrader (202) 225-5711

State: Oregon

National Republican Congressional Committee, Schrader's office said he had made no commitment to support

the final bill.

 

Rep. Shelly Berkley (202) 225-5965

"not inclined" to support the Senate version, which the House must pass

in the process toward final legislation.

 

Rep. Raúl Grijalva (202) 225-2435

Rep. Bart Gordon 202-225-4231

that while he initially voted against the bill because it did not do

in a more fiscally responsible direction now."

 

Rep. John Boccieri 202-225-3876

State: Ohio

Current position: Undecided. Told The Washington Post this week that

following last week's bipartisan summit, "I'm encouraged the proposal

contains important provisions to reduce fraud, waste and abuse and

reduce the deficit." Added that he was "hopeful" about achieving

quality, affordable health care. The original House legislation, he said at the time, did "not go far

enough" to reduce costs and get rid of waste, fraud and abuse.

 

Rep. Walt Minnick (202) 225-6611

support the final bill.
