The House is our last shot and boosting the size of the recovery bill -- at the very least, to move the "savings" from the centrist cuts into the programs that everyone agrees are "good." School construction, aid to the states, food stamps and COBRA (among other things) deserve more funding.
So in addition to our "zero cred" talking points (after the jump), add the following:
Please tell [representative] that we want the savings from the Senate cuts added to the programs that remain in the bill. More spending equals more jobs equals more growth.
__Phone number for your Representative here.
__Phone numbers for the Congressional Democratic leadership here.
__Phone number for your Senator here.
The message:
"The Republicans have zero credibility on the economy."
Paraphrase President Obama:
"Please reject the Republican theories that got us into this mess in the first place."
