Clearly neither the Senate nor Congress is listening to anything we
say in the Healthcare debate, so we are going to focus some effort,
media and scrutiny on Cincinnati as a symbol of citizens saying,
NO!!
To
take the healthcare protest to the next stage, we are starting a 4
day protest beginning on October 21 and ending Oct 24.
The
idea is to quite literally use "We Surround Them" as the
concept...and in this case (for Driehaus), We Surround Him.
The
basic idea is to have demonstrators with signs and educational
material at every interestion on I-275 around the whole loop from
4pm-6pm on October 21, 22, and 23 - Surrounding Cincinnati
On
the 24th we will all meet at Carew Tower downtown (Driehaus office
inside) at 4pm, and en-circle the building with a chain of people.
After we have been there for a while, we will walk over to fountain
square, have a quick speech and send people on their way.
Driehaus is our one local rep whose mind we hope to sway - I know,
he isn't my rep either (except Nita), but we need him to vote
against this thing. And Schmidt, Boehner and Turner are not the
problem at this point.
REALLY IMPORTANT - we are going to organize this through a sign up
system on the CTP website where people will choose intersections and
dates they can attend. The goal will be at least 5 people on each
side of every intersection along 275.
So,
we were hoping your group and members could take everything from 275
and Colerain all the way through Kentucky to the 275 and 471
interchange.
Obviously Cincinnati Tea Party as a whole will be helping to assign
people, but we figured the local groups will have the best shot at
locations close to you.
We
need you to speak with individuals in your group through phone or
email, and see who is available to attend these dates and locations
(any day is fine). Then we need those people signed up on the master
list so we know where people will be.
People on this e-mail are:
Scott - Harrison,
OH
Nita Thomas - West Side of Cincinnati
Andrew Lohmiller -
Lawrenceburg, We the Hoosiers
Willie Schadler - Northern Kentucky
Tea Party
These are definitely the times that try men's souls. People are
truly upset and hopefully this gives them outlet to show it.
