Obama's Organizing for America: Call your Congressman.

To all fellow pawns of the insurance companies, special interest, partisan attack organizations and employees of Rent-a-Mob,

The perpetual Obama campaign machine is not letting up in their effort to influence Congress on Health Care policy and neither should we. We need to show them that we are not just a "tiny minority being stirred up by special interest." We need to flood our Congressman's office with phone calls and we need to schedule office visits. If you don't know your congressman's phone number, the below correspondence has a handy look-up tool.

I am on the mailing list of Organizing for America and MoveOn so I get their emails. I thought you might want to know what they are up to. Rod

Friend --Members of Congress have been home for just a few days, and they're already facing increased pressure from insurance companies, special interests, and partisan attack organizations that are spending millions to block health insurance reform.

These groups are using scare tactics and spreading smears about the President's plan for reform, trying to incite constituents into lashing out at their representatives and disrupting their events.

The goal of these disruptions is for a few people to get a lot of media attention and hijack the entire public discourse. If they succeed, all Americans -- Democrats, Republicans, and Independents -- will continue to struggle under the broken status quo.

It's up to us to show Congress that those loudly opposing reform are a tiny minority being stirred up by special interests, and that a huge majority strongly supports enacting real health insurance reform in 2009.

Your representative, Jim Cooper, has been fighting hard for real health insurance reform. Can you call the local office in Nashville? Let the person who answers know that you're a constituent. Then tell them: "Thanks for working to enact real health insurance reform this year. Voters like me support your efforts."

According to our records, you live in Tennessee's 5th congressional district.

Please call:Rep. Jim Cooper at 615-736-5295.Once you've made your call, click here to report it.

(Not your representative? Click here to look yours up.) Calling should only take a few minutes, but it's a huge help. These local offices serve as the main connection between a member of Congress and voters in the district. And with representatives home on recess, the staff there are in daily contact with your member, keeping them updated on how many calls they receive that are for or against reform.

Once you've called, please tell us. Knowing how many calls are coming in from all around the country will help us better plan our campaign -- and help us show that the American people overwhelmingly want health insurance reform this year. Let us know you called: http://my.barackobama.com/districtcall1?district=TN5&postal_code=37219&source=20090806

Thanks,
Mitch Stewart
