Well, it seems that Pres. Obama is right again. Washington won't change overnight. It seems that many have forgotten the months of work we did to send a message to Washington that we were ready for change. What I think is more important is that WE don't forget and get lazy, expecting them to just give it to us.
Republicans in the House and Senate are leaning toward thier tendancy not to listen and to go back to what we had for the past 8 years. We need to let them know that change has come. There were almost 2 million people in the Mall a few weeks ago. We cannot let them forget that!!!
We have to do what we did during the campaign, email and call each and every representative and let them know that we are still paying attention and we are still engaged and WILL BE ENGAGED from now on!!!
I live in Michigan and have contacted Gov. Granholm's office (D), Carl Levin (D), Debbie Stabenow(D) and Mike Rogers(R) and let them know that I want them to support the Stimulus Package. I personally feel like they need alot more Infrastructure money (we have potholes that cars get lost in and no money to repair them) But ALL Obama supporters need to contact their Govenor, and Congressional Representatives and put the pressure to work to pass this bill quickly.
I will personally be watching to see who votes for it and who votes against it. Their votes will be considered when mid term elections come around.
Go to www.congress.org if you are not sure of who you should contact. Your state website should have a contact button for your Govenor. WE HAVE GOT TO GET BACK TO WORK!!!
