Action Alert
Congress.org Capitol Hill Switchboard: (202) 224-3121
“Dear Senator/Representative:
You MUST reject the Paulson/Bernanke plan for bailing out and propping up reckless banks at taxpayer expense. This is madness to ask us, the taxpayers, to cover the liabilities of Wall Street. We are tired of being fleeced. If you vote to support this plan, I will do everything in my power to remove you from office before you can give away any more of our money to failed businessmen.
Thank you, [Your name]”
Activist Materials:
We have developed a simple one page handout that can be distributed door-to-door or easily handed out to anyone you come across. This handout sums up the current situation, gives a four-step solution to getting our country out of this mess, and includes contact information for people to reach their representatives and senators. It’s designed to get as much information in the hands of as many people as possible as fast as possible.
The key with the first handout (which we know had an awful lot of info for a one-page handout) is that it exists to get information out there - even if that means just using it as a resource for discussing the topic with other people.

We finally got fed up with the media's (lack of) coverage of the Austrian school perspective on this financial meltdown. Followers of the Austrian school have been right for years with warning our country of this impending disaster, yet, the media does very little to give us a voice.
Therefore, we are using the power of the Internet to bring you the message you need to hear. All this week the Campaign for Liberty is broadcasting the first hour of Scott Horton's Antiwar Radio show as he talks with guests about the current financial crisis.
Today on the show Scott will host Robert Blumen. Mr. Blumen is a frequent writer on Mises.org and LewRockwell.com. He is the author of a great article titled "Is Gold Money?" and an excellent communinicator on the topic.
Tomorrow on the show will be Ron Paul's former economic adviser, Peter Schiff, to talk about current events and give advice on how to avoid this crisis.

Our friends at Freedom Works are pushing for support of HR 6870 today. Read the full story on the bill here. Then, call the offices of Rep. Jeb Hensarling (R-TX) and Rep. Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) in support of the bill. It goes up for vote within an hour or two! Here is the action alert email sent out by Freedom Works today:
Your phone calls to the House Financial Services Committee have been making a difference! But now we need to turn our efforts to our good friends, and fellow conservatives, Rep. Jeb Hensarling (R-TX) and Rep. Kevin McCarthy (R-CA). They need to hear from us that we support NET FREEDOM in the form of HR 6870.
Jeb's number is 202-225-3484.
Kevin's number is 202-225-2915.
The vote will be extremely close and it very well could turn on these two votes!
