First we had one, then two sponsors for the “One Subject at a Time Act.” NOW WE HAVE SIX!
We’ve just gained 4 new co-sponsors.
This means that you now have multiple new chances to become more powerful! Here’s how to . . .
Do two simple things that will make it more likely that some of these new “One Subject” sponsors will . .
1. Ask their friends in Congress to become sponsors too.
2. Also sponsor our “Read the Bills” and “Write the Laws” acts.
STEP ONE: Go to the Facebook pages for each new co-sponsor and thank them for supporting the “One Subject at a Time Act.”
Representative Mo Brooks of Alabama: http://www.facebook.com/pages/Congressman-Mo-Brooks/155220881193244?sk=wall
Representative Ann Marie Buerkle of New York: http://www.facebook.com/RepBuerkle?sk=wall
Representative Robert T. Shilling of Illinois: http://www.facebook.com/congressmanbobbyschilling?sk=wall
Representative Allen B. West of Florida: http://www.facebook.com/AllenWestFL?sk=wall
Use your “thank you” to suggest that they send a “Dear colleague” letter to their friends in Congress, asking them to become co-sponsors too.
Also ask them to consider introducing the “Read the Bills Act” and the “Write the Laws Act.” Share the links for those bills with them . . .

Many of you have done this already with Reps. Marino and Posey. It’s had an effect. In fact, we know it’s been a positive motivator for Rep. Marino to seek additional publicity for OSTA and to recruit his colleagues.
STEP TWO: Call and say thank you for sponsoring the “One Subject at a Time Act”, and suggest that they send a “Dear Colleague” letter asking other members of Congress to also co-sponsor “One Subject.”
