Defunding Obamacare - Action needed this week

Defunding Obamacare (PALLONECARE)

Your action is needed today and throughout this week!

Here's an overview of what's happening...

The House is considering a "Continuing Resolution (CR)" to fund the federal government from March to September.  In the bill are proposed earmarks for ObamaCare's implementation. The House is not voting on any bills until late in the day so you have the opportunity to call today to make your voice heard!

•            House Majority Leader Eric Cantor (R-VA) promises, "One way or the other" there will be no funding for ObamaCare in the CR.
•            Representative Steve King (R-IA) has prepared language to completely defund healthcare "reform," which he has promised will be added to the CR.
•            Representative Denny Rehberg (R-MT), the Chairman of the Labor, Health and Human Services Subcommittee, which controls the purse strings for ObamaCare, has also declared his intention to defund the law.
•            Congresswoman Cathy McMorris Rodgers (R-WA) has introduced a bill preventing the IRS from hiring the extra agents needed to enforce the individual mandate in ObamaCare. As you probably know, the IRS is slated to become the "ObamaCare enforcement agency."
•            And Speaker John Boehner's aide said this about the upcoming battle: "We will use every means at our disposal to stop this job-destroying law."

The vote on the Continuing Resolution and its "defunding amendment" is expected this week!

BUT defunding of Obamacare is NOT in the Continuing Resolution currently in process!

Since the defunding language is in a separate amendment, you need to call the GOP members of the House Rules Committee (where the first vote is expected in the next 24 hrs) immediately to  urge them to support Rep. Steve King's amendment to defund Obamacare.

The GOP members of the Rules Committee, and their office phone numbers are:

Pete Sessions, TX-32 (202) 225-2231

Virginia Foxx, NC-5 (202) 225-2071

Rob Bishop, UT-1 (202) 225-0453

Rob Woodall, GA-7  (202) 225-4272

Richard Nugent, FL-5 (202) 225-1002

Tim Scott, SC-1 (202) 225-3176

Daniel Webster, FL-8 (202) 225-2176 

Keep the pressure on and hold the GOP to its promises!

Here's what I say when I call,

"Hi I'd like to register my opinion on something.  Please ask the Congressman to support Steve King's amendment to defund Obamacare in the continuing resolution.  Thank you."

They may also ask for your name and address.  There's no need to dodge this question.  Just answer politely and move on to the next call.

The goal is to have such a dramatic volume of calls on the subject that the message is clearly sent.

Then, call our own NJ GOP Congressional representatives to vote 'Yes' on this.

Avenues of Communication

Communication is the most important, most basic function we perform. Without it, we can't learn, educate, fundraise, protest, advocate or discuss. All other functions depend on effective, efficient commuication.

Facebook, Twitter, blogs, television, radio, books and other media are simply vehicles. They do not in and of themselves make communication effective. Effective communication is such independent of medium.

Understanding the avenues of communication help us understand how to be more effective in our communications.

Being aware of your avenues of communication

You offer communications to yourself through many, many avenues, inwardly and outwardly. All of your outer senses are communication devices. They are mechanisms to provide you with information. All of your inner senses are also mechanisms to provide you with information, communications. Your emotions are communications. They are more obvious, for they also employ signals, feelings. The feeling that you experience in association with what you define as an emotion is a signal. That is signaling you that your telephone is ringing.

Now; identifying what the signal is in one word indicates to you what to be evaluating in association with what the communication is. Intuition, impressions, impulses, these are also avenues of communication. Your physical body consciousness also offers you communications. Your imagination is another avenue of communication. Imagination is not fantasy; it is real. Whatever you can imagine actually exists. It may not in your physical reality, but it exists. These are all avenues of communication. That is one factor which is important to pay attention to.

Remember, thought is NOT a communication. Thought is a translating mechanism. What you think is associated with where your attention is focused. It is translating some communications and where your attention is focused. That is the function of thought.

Also, paying attention to what you are actually doing is another significant factor. Therefore, you are paying attention to what you are communicating to yourself and you are also paying attention to what you are actually doing or what you are not doing, paying attention to whether your attention is being flexible or not, whether it continues to focus in specific directions that are actually generating obstacles or hindrances in association with what you are doing, figuratively speaking. If you continue to concentrate your attention upon a wall that exists before you, you merely continue to collide with it over and over again.

There are many factors to be aware of yourself and what you are actually doing. Many times individuals are not aware objectively of what they are doing until the point that they do actually generate some type of uncomfortable scenario or manifestation. But this is the point. That actually can be avoided if you are paying attention. This is not to say that you shall never again create an uncomfortable situation if you are genuinely paying attention. You may, but you may also choose to create an uncomfortable situation intentionally. That would be the difference, rather than creating an uncomfortable situation in association with ignoring or not paying attention.

In all of this, you have expressed many different situations which are occurring or potentially occurring but not actually occurring within your experience, in your world, in your environment. The significant element is to evaluate what actually IS occurring and what is not, what actually is being expressed in the now and what is being anticipated and is not actually occurring, or what you are speculating in relation to but is also not actually occurring, and being aware of what you are actually doing or not doing. For many times, what you are NOT doing is also a doing.

Now; you are generating considerable churning in your energy in many different directions, which also creates somewhat of a scatteredness. For, it generates less clarity and more confusion if you are creating many different directions simultaneously but not actually focusing clearly upon any of them. That creates a considerable volume of communications that are expressing information to you that you are not generating clarity, that you are generating considerable scatteredness, that you are not focusing your attention. But you are not listening, and therefore, you create a physical manifestation. The ringing becomes a siren.

In all of this action, as you continue to generate that scatteredness and you continue to move your energy in many different directions simultaneously ― but not actually accomplishing what you want in any of them, for you are not directed enough in any of them that generates another automatic response of tension, which you may not actually even at times physically feel because it becomes so familiar that it is unnoticed. It becomes noticed if you generate actions that intentionally create a relaxation. Thusly, you begin to notice how much energy you have been holding in tension.

I may express to you, first of all, it may be quite beneficial for you to evaluate these different directions, and in that evaluation, view the importance, measure the importance of each scenario, of each situation. Subsequent to that action, allow yourself to evaluate the measure of value that you associate with each of these scenarios. That will allow you to move in more of a balance and to choose which scenario you wish to focus upon, and move from one to another but not to be distracting yourself.

Once you have chosen one subject to address to, be present with yourself in the now and allow yourself to hold your attention directedly with that one subject , not distracting yourself with projections of all of the other subjects, but allow yourself to follow one and accomplish some action with it. Even if you are not actually completing a direction, allow yourself to generate some actual accomplishment, some product of each one before moving to the next. You are incorporating very much distraction, but not productive distraction.
