The following is a list of the Democrats who voted YES on the Stupak Amendment to the House health care bill.

If you see your Representative on this list, click on their name to get their DC and in-district phone numbers. Then feel free to make a call and tell your Rep. what you think about that vote. That freedom hasn’t been restricted, yet.
It is about time we had some responsible democrats with guts enough to stand up for what is right for America and what is right according to God. Ii is wonderful that there are those who will stand against the so called healthcare bill as pushed by Obowman, Pelosi, and Reed. This is nothing but a travesty and will further bankrupt this great nation. I would hate to be named with those who call themselves progressives. That is just another word for socialism, on the road to communism. Praise God for men who will stand against both progressive democrats, republicans, and progressives, and will take a stand for Americans and freedom.
I’m glad that you are against abortion funding……you should also be against the horrible health care bill that will be voted on soon…………there is a need for reform but NOT THIS!. Start over, try insurance across state lines, tort reform to mention a few. Please…..I ask this for the future of our country.
