-senate republicans are becoming desperate to pass this bill. no one knows what bill they will vote on (first theyre saying the cruz amendment bill, now they are saying full repeal, then they say repeal and delay. who freaking knows). the vote is in 4 days, so next tuesday on the 25th. they are voting on a MTP (motion to proceed. proceed to which bill? that is the golden question)
-don’t be fooled, confusion is the goal. they are doing this on purpose. trumpcare is well and alive and can and will pass if they get to 50 MTP votes. because no one knows what the bill is, every senator is going to vote for their own fantasy bill for MTP.
see this thread for more. here’s another thread.basically:
The Trumpcare plan is to ask Senators to vote on something without
knowing what it is, not scored, dropped in at the last minute.They are willing 2 make deals, promises & payoffs plus political
threats but no matter what are cutting $1 trillion from low income care.-McConnell, Pence, and Trump are working overtime to convince ‘moderate’ and ‘undecided’ GOP senators to vote yes to MTP. if MTP is accepted and gets to 50 votes, that’s it. Trumpcare essentially passes in one form or another. the media keeps saying this bill is dead. IT IS NOT. remember when they kept saying that it was dead in the House, and then it went and freaking passed?
-what you can do:
read this article to understand exactly how close they are to passing this bill
call senators. call governors. ESSENTIAL!!
***submit amendments***
show up to local offices.
only call *your* senators. do not call others. instead, what you can do is email, fax other senators. go to facebook, type in ‘friends in ___ state’, and tell them to call their senators. this is absolutely crucial.

you guys don’t understand how close they are to passing trumpcare. they are extremely close. we need *overwhelming* resistance on monday and this weekened.
again, they are extremely close. if the MTP goes through, they can basically pass any form of trumpcare. medicaid will end as we know it. thousands will die and millions will be thrown into financial stress. let’s not talk about the fact that it will throw the economy for a loop
here’s what you can do on monday after you call your senator and email them:
