Tell Jim Ramstad to represent 3rd district and oppose SS privatization!!!
From US Newswire: Poll found that sixty-six percent of registered said they "disapproved" of the President's handling of Social Security and that the Bush plan will weaken Social Security. Similarly, two-thirds of poll respondents oppose privatization.

3D action: Call and e-mail Congressman Ramstad and tell him to represent 3rd district voters and oppose social security privatization.

Phone#: (202) 225-2871
Email: mn03@mail.house.gov *

* Be sure to give your mailing address so Ramstad can respond to you when e-mailing.

1. I don't live in his district, so he will ignore me
but when my Bloomington-based brother comes back from vacation, I'll tell him to call Ramstad.

Ramstad isn't a moderate. Despite what you may hear on hate radio, Ramstad is no RINO.

4. 3rd district voters
I used to be a student at Wayzata High School, and the voters here are "Well like, I'm so Republican because like..I want to keep my money, yeah!" People don't know who they are voting for.

Ramstad should be toast if social security is the #1 issue for this district. We need a state legislator to run or perhaps Deborah Watts again.

5. He talks . . .
. . . more moderate at home than he votes in DC. Ramstad talks about replealing NCLB, increasing the federal share of special education, and mental health care parity when he is home. But he has nothing to show for it.

2. You should protest in front of his office and call the local newspaper
The Rethugs can't claim to be moderates when they vote for Bush's corporate agenda instead of the people's agenda.
