It's been a busy summer, with lots of activity in politics and everybody's lives. The March on DC capped off the summer season
with a bang.
At this point we are between major events and are looking at plans for the coming months. Come join
us on Thursday and bring your ideas along...
October 10th and 11th we will have a booth set up at the Flea Market at the Iowa State Fairgrounds, 9:00 am to 4:00 pm. We'll
be at the 4-H Building. The 4-H building can be found at the bottom left corner of the map (#37). Click HERE to download the
map. This is a great opportunity to come meet us if you can't make it to a Thursday Meetup!

Harry Reid (finally) released the text of the Senate Version of the health care reform bill today (November 19, 2009). The text
of the bill can be found by clicking HERE.
Again, I would refer people to please look at our "Write Your Representatives"
link on the right side of this page. We are sending hundreds of letters out every week to Iowa's senators and reps, as well
as to blue dog Democrats and more conservative Democratic Senators. We have been getting their attention with this drive.
Thanks to everyone out there who has joined us in this effort.
It's too late to write the Senate about the health care
bill today, THEY WANT TO VOTE ON SATURDAY THE 21ST OF NOVEMBER. CALL YOUR SENATOR AND SAY NO!
