I got a lot of busy signals also. Although towards the end of the day (3:00) the lines were mostly wide open.
I was only calling on the list above.
I just finished emailing the Republicans on the list, tomorrow I'll do the Democrats.
I was on the Senate web site and Murkowski, from Alaska is a big problem, as she votes with the Gang of eight and not with the Republicans.
Hoeven, and Corker are expected to vote yes after their amendment is adopted. That will allow Ayotte to sell out. and then I think they will have the 60 votes.
We've got to pound Murkowski, Hoeven, Corker, Ayotte and persuade all the Dems. on the list to see if we can get some crossovers.
We've really got the deck stacked against us.
I'm not giving up though, This bill has had cardiac arrest several times, it's just that this bill is a zombie and they keep bringing it back to life when what it really wants to do is just die.
