[Newer: Tremonton 9/12 weekly meeting note and RP & RP on the GB show!] [Older: Garland Wheat and Beet Days a success!]

This video of what is going on with HR 1207 by Ron Paul shows that we still need to contact those on the Monitary Policy Sub-Committee who will be working on this legislation and very possibly attempting to water it down before it appears before the entire Committee (the House of Reps).

Subcommittee on Domestic Monetary Policy and Technology

Rep. Melvin L. Watt (NC), Chairman
Rep. Carolyn B. Maloney (NY)
Rep. Gregory W. Meeks (NY)
Rep. William Lacy Clay (MO)
Rep. Brad Sherman (CA)
Rep. Al Green (TX)
Rep. Emanuel Cleaver (MO)
Rep. Keith Ellison (MN)
Rep. John Adler (NJ)
Rep. Suzanne Kosmas (FL)

Rep. Ron Paul (TX), Ranking Member
Rep. Michael N. Castle (DE)
Rep. Frank D. Lucas (OK)
Rep. Jim Gerlach (PA)
Rep. Tom Price (GA)
Rep. Bill Posey (FL)
Rep. Leonard Lance (NJ)

 

Here are the members that need to be urged not to water this piece of legislation down to have the greatest benifit from this transparency.

Call the capitol switchboard 202-224-3121 and ask for these members offices, or feel free to comment on this blog post with their direct numbers.

Thanks all,

John Potter

Here is that contact info for those on the Sub-Committee:

1. Rep. John Adler, NJ (202) 225-4765

2. Rep. Travis Childers, MS (202) 225-4306

3. Rep. Steve Driehaus, OH (202) 225-2216

4. Rep. Alan Grayson, FL (202) 225-2176

5. Rep. Rubén Hinojosa, TX (202) 225-2531

6. Rep. Suzanne Kosmas, FL Toll Free: 1-877-956-7627

7. Rep. Dan Maffei, NY (202) 225-3701

8. Rep. Brad Miller, NC (202) 225-3032

9. Rep. Walt Minnick, ID (202) 225-6611

10. Rep. Ed Perlmutter, CO (202)-225-2645

11. Rep. David Scott, GA (202) 225-2939

12. Rep. Brad Sherman, CA (202) 225-5911

13. Rep. Jackie Speier, CA (202) 225-3531

When contacting these members, remember that up to this point, these members have been allies on this issue. A civil yet firm tone should be kept during these calls. They should be thanked for their cosponsorship, told that Mel Watt's changes to the bill are unacceptable, and urged to hold the line and honor their promise to support transparency at the Fed by voting "Yes" for the Paul amendment.

It is also important that we contact Financial Services Chairman Barney Frank and House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and urge them to schedule a standalone, up or down vote on the real Audit the Fed bill.

Rep. Barney Frank: (202) 225-5931

Speaker Nancy Pelosi: (202) 225-0100

Now is a crucial time for Audit the Fed. If these 13 Democrats hold the line, we can win this battle. But, they must vote "Yes" on the Paul amendment when the full committee votes.
