House back for votes 7/11/17 evening/Senate by 7/10 (but will probably not schedule any votes).

Because of what just happened, and assuming they kill votes for the end of the week, they may be off starting Thursday night though.

The Republican leadership tried to pass the bill quickly, before the public had a chance to put pressure on their representatives to vote against it. It didn't work. We should keep up the pressure to make sure they are not able to destroy the ACA through inaction.

Get out and let a politician know you're watching Democrat and Republican.

He will strike the fear into Republicans, and embolden the Democrats.

Kill this rich people K Street written tax giveaway disguised as a healthcare bill forever.

Believe it or not, you have a lot of Republicans quietly praying you get out and protest.

It gives them cover to tell Mitch McConnell, they are not going to pad his retirement with their jobs.

Which I hope it's too late for that

But McConnell re-writing the bill means that it probably won't pass the House at all...

More moderate you lose the tea-holes and less moderate you lose the Republican-lites.
