This email from HRC ,URGENT Please follow my thread on counter the radical right... I'm posting this here as well ,to get people's attention.(more details on my thread.)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I got this one in the email:
I'm forwarding you a message from our legislative director,
Allison - the vote on hate crimes will be Thursday, and she's
got some disturbing news.
Apparently legislators are being so heavily bombarded with calls
and emails from the radical right that some are getting very
nervous about voting for the bill. Knowing how close we are,
that's not good.
EVEN IF YOU'VE ALREADY CALLED YOUR REPRESENTATIVE about
this bill, and even if they've said they'll vote for it, we need
you to pick up the phone RIGHT NOW and remind them of your
support.
For talking points, and to tell us you called, go to:

Thank you so much,
Joe Solmonese

leadership staffers, who asked us to kick up the grassroots
support. They are talking to Members of Congress and senior
staff who are reporting that they are getting flooded by the
other side's emails and phone calls. This has some key freshman
Members very nervous. Others are still on the fence.
