This Is It!

Bush Sends CAFTA to Congress (The clock for an up-or-down vote has started!)

The situation is this:

• The Bush administration's game plan for creating an EU-type FTAA hinges on congressional approval of CAFTA.
• Since establishment of the FTAA would spell the end of U.S. independence and constitutional protections of our God-given rights, CAFTA must be defeated.
• The administration is pushing for a vote on CAFTA by the Senate as early as next week, expecting to get a vote of approval that would put pressure on the House to approve CAFTA soon after it reconvenes the week of July 11th.
• The pro-CAFTA forces are competing for "our" votes, so we have to compete for "their" votes while working to stiffen resistance among "our" votes. The pro-CAFTA forces are offering whatever it takes to pressure wavering congressmen into supporting CAFTA. But we can win if we work seriously to build some new constituent pressure.
• Since the pro- and anti-CAFTA votes in Congress are fairly evenly divided, how each and every senator and representative votes is critical.
• Your success in winning over your congressmen to vote NO on CAFTA, or in convincing your congressmen to remain in the anti-CAFTA camp, could be decisive for defeating CAFTA and delivering a major defeat to the globalist forces behind the administration's phony "free-trade" agenda.

The key to convincing your senators and representative to vote NO on CAFTA is to persuade others in your circle of influence to join you in contacting your senators and representative in vigorous opposition to CAFTA. Although both senators and representatives should be contacted, focus your most strenuous efforts on your representative. The House vote promises to be a cliffhanger.

How you can help:

• Activate immediately those in your circle of influence who will contact Congress in opposition to CAFTA based on your say so. You can offer them a link to our STOP CAFTA! website (STOPCAFTA.com) and our online letter to Congress against CAFTA.
• Use the following tools to persuade the remainder of your circle of influence to contact Congress: Our STOP CAFTA! website (STOPCAFTA.com); Will Grigg's hard-hitting, five-minute, STOP CAFTA! video clip; Will Grigg's article, "CAFTA: Exporting American Jobs and Industry"; and our online letter to Congress against CAFTA.
• Emphasize that we cannot be satisfied with mere routine contacts with Congress -- we're talking about sufficient pressure to ensure a NO vote!
• As time and resources permit, write letters to the editor (use Will Grigg's CAFTA article for talking points) encouraging readers to contact their congressmen in opposition to CAFTA and arrange for airing our 30-second STOP CAFTA! radio ads (downloadable under "Resources" on STOPCAFTA.com).
