This message sent from the Lyme Disease Association of Southeastern Pennsylvania by Harvey L. Kliman ============================================================================ ===== The Federal bill supporting Lyme disease research ($20 million/year for 5 years) is being held up in the Health Committees. Wednesday, tomorrow, Lyme Rights has organized a protest in front of Congressman Frank Pallone's office in Long Branch, NJ. Information is posted on www.LymeRights.org If you can't come and I expect that's most of you, you can help this effort by making a phone call.
Thank you, Harvey ======================= from Lyme Rights ================================
EVERYONE Is NEEDED This Wednesday - Calling Campaign Day of Protest!
Congress NEEDS to hear us this Wednesday - lets make our message loud & clear!!!
2. Distribute this to as many people as you can - the phones MUST be ringing off the hooks for this to work!
3. Print out the phone blurbs and numbers. Walk outside with your cell phone and urge your neighbors to call.
4. Protestors - print the pages out and bring them with you. We'll call from our cell phones during the protest.
The Connecticut Attorney General has provided us with an opportunity we MUST take advantage of NOW! We made over 2,000 phone calls in one day and - We NEED to step it up a notch!
National Strategy for this Wednesday * The entire country will call up all committee members, Congressman Pallone & Senator Kennedy. * Protest has a respectable turnout but even more people are needed! * Media has been contacted and we already have some radio interviews prepped to go out tomorrow. * Protest will be taped and clips posted on YouTube. * Flyers will be distributed to people walking by and to local stores in area. * Lawn signs will be given to neighbors to keep up until the bill gets scheduled for a hearing. * Pallone constituents will be meeting with Long Branch office staff. * LDA representative will be meeting with key legislators in DC during the protest. * Press materials & photos will be available on website after the protest for people to send to their local media.
This is a BLITZ - we ALL NEED to participate!
Thanks for participating in this historic movement, Lyme Rights
