UPDATE: Wednesday, 9:39 PM -- Sens. Amy Klobuchar (D-Minn.) and Ben Cardin (D-Md.) are the latest to indicate support for the use of reconciliation to pass health care reform legislation that includes a public option. LINK http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2010/02/17/dianne-feinstein-signs-on_n_466435.html


There are now thirteen Senators who support yesterday's bold move to save the public option.

Sign the letter! http://whipcongress.com/letter-senate?source=med

Senators:

1. Michael Bennet

2. Kirsten Gillibrand

3. Jeff Merkley

4. Sherrod Brown

5. Al Franken

6. Pat Leahy

7. John Kerry

8. Sheldon Whitehouse

9. Roland Burris

10. Bernie Sanders

11. Dianne Feinstein

new --->>>12. Amy Klobuchar

new --->>>13. Ben Cardin

just in --->>>14. Carl Levin

If your Senator is on the list call them and give them some love!

If your Senator is not listed get a script and give it to them!.

This effort can work! Make some noise!

Demand that your Senator publicly announces his or her support and that President Obama come out forcefully in favor of this critical and valiant effort to rescue our country's health care system.

Any Democrat that does not sign on must know they court the anger of the majority of their voters...

...Update: Downthread GOTV says he talked to Carl Levin tonight and he says he will sign. So on the basis of his demonstrated veracity I guess that's 14...

SNIP

...Keep calling!
