Get the Government Going: Bypass Boehner and the Tea Party Tantrum!
Get the government going. Bypass Boehner and the tea party tantrum by signing a discharge petition!
Why is this important?
This is a people’s issue, not a Democratic or Republican issue.
We the people don’t have to understand all the rules of the House of Representatives to make our wishes known: GET THE GOVERNMENT GOING.
There is a mechanism to do this--it’s called a Discharge Petition. If you’re interested in learning about it, look it up in Wikipedia. All it takes is 218 members of the House of Representatives to sign it. This would bypass the abuse of power John Boehner has been using to prevent a vote, and simply let the government pay its bills according to the laws Congress has already passed.
This would bypass the Tea Party Tantrum Ted Cruz and his confederates in the House of Representatives have been using to hold the country hostage because they lost the battle in Congress about the Affordable Care Act – several years ago.
The Affordable Care Act (sometimes called ACA or Obamacare) is the law of the land–it was passed by both houses of Congress, signed by the President, and upheld by the Supreme Court. And when the people of the United States are asked about most of the individual provisions of the ACA, overwhelming majorities of Americans say, “Yes, I support that.”
