From my mailbox today:

Patriots,

Yesterday we learned that the House Leadership was going to adopt the strategy to pass a Continuing Resolution that funds the entire government and stops funding for Obamacare. While this is encouraging news, we must not think that this battle is over. Between now and the end of September, we need to do everything to put pressure on the House Republicans to stand strong. The only way we win this battle to stop Obamacare is if they don’t blink.

Over the next several days we will be making calls to action. We need to make as many phone calls as we can. This is how we convinced the House Leadership to get on board with the American people and right now it’s the only way we’re going to have a chance to stop Obamacare!

What you need to know about the rest of this fight:

1. Get Democrats on board: We need to do what we can this afternoon and tomorrow morning to get as many House Democrats on board with this legislation. There are 35 who voted to delay the Employer mandate and/or the Individual mandate. These Democrats have admitted that Obamacare is not ready - so it should be a no-brainer for them to support this Continuing Resolution. (Find the list below)
2. Verify then Trust: Right now it appears as though the House Leadership will follow through with this Continuing Resolution. The only problem is we’ve seen House Leadership play games before. Even last week they were trying to play games. We have to do everything we can to make sure that the Republicans in the House stand strong and don’t blink. President Obama said he is not willing to negotiate on the debt ceiling; John Boehner should say the same thing about Obamacare.
3. Pressure the Senate: Once the House passes the bill, we need to put as much pressure on Harry Reid and the Senate as we possibly can. We’ll have those numbers for you later this week and early next week.
4. House to Stand Strong: Whatever happens in the Senate, the House needs to stand strong and not negotiate on Obamacare. This fight likely won’t die in the Senate. We need to be prepared to shift pressure back to the House after the Senate takes up the Continuing Resolution.

This afternoon and tomorrow: Call these House Democrats and remind them that through their votes on HR2667 and HR2668 they admitted that Obamacare was not ready for the American people and that they should do the right thing tomorrow and stop the funding for it in the Continuing Resolution.
