My Republican Rep won't support HR1207!

Dear Rep,

Thank you for your honesty with me! It is important for your constituents to know that you're more interested in protecting and hiding bad decisions, with possible illegality, than being honest with your voting public. I will be sure to spread your position around to those in my district. Thank you once again for your moment of frankness with me!

p.s. Since you must have some knowledge on which banks are sick and which are not, Who do you bank with? Just give me a hint. You can keep protecting corporatism, just give this one poor constituent a point in a healthy direction...

First, I'm glad to see five new cosponsors this week (total is now 33):

Rep Fleming, John LA-4 03/18/09
Rep Buchanan, Vern FL-13 03/17/09
Rep Castle, Michael N. DE 03/17/09
Rep Blackburn, Marsha TN-7 03/16/09
Rep Wamp, Zach TN-3 03/16/09

My Representative, John Linder, responded to my inquiry into HR1207 with a response to HR833 (which isn't what I was inquiring about... probably just some intern thinking it would suffice) saying that he doesn't support abolishing the Fed. Then the maddening thing is he goes on to say in his response the following:

While I do not support efforts to eliminate the Federal Reserve, I do believe that we can make it more accountable and provide the American people with an opportunity to view the manner in which this nation's monetary policy is controlled. In light of the Federal Reserve's willingness to invoke its role as "lender of last resort," I believe additional transparency and disclosure are especially important. You may be interested to know that I have supported legislation in the past which would give the General Accountability Office the opportunity to audit the Federal Reserve Board, the Federal Advisory Council, the Federal Open Market Committee, and the Federal Reserve banks and their branches. I prefer this more limited approach to the wholesale abolishment of the Federal Reserve, which is what H.R. 833 envisions.

I've been contacting his office trying to get him to take a look at it and was told I may need to wait a month and a half to get a response.

I'm sure there's more representatives that will cosponsor this bill if just a bit more pressure is added. I'm surprised Kucinich and Kaptur aren't on the list. Who else are likely cosponsors?

If your confused and think that the Fed' has been audited in the past and that this bill isn't important, please check out this thread that will clarify the situation:

my "representative" won't even respond after emails, phone calls and faxes. he is also carl levin's older brother. that probably has something to do with it. if h.r. 1207 does not get through the committee, then we should use this as quick as possible to expose the corruption of the reps and let everyone in your district know to vote them out next time. continuously work against them from now until the next election to make them look like the corruption they are to the people of your district.

how much he got for it? and can you ask why he is a traitor and pure filth?

get him fired

I don't really represent you. I support corrupt institutions that help get me elected.

The Federal Reserve is being funded by terrorists! So ask your representatives who are the people, businesses or family's operating this? We need to demand to see the wizards behind the curtain. He can not tell you they are not terrorists because he has no clue and can not prove otherwise.

my rep zoe lofgren have not respond yet to my letter! I've sent it three weeks ago.

Don't you also love the way he/she said that if people knew that their bank was bad they would take their money out, and we can't have people taking their money out of bad banks.

You might want to write back and suggest that your rep. consider changing parties.

they are funneling money (donations) to him through companies like AIG for his re-election. He's not going to bite the hand that feeds him. There is no accountability. It's just one big Ponzi scheme, and the taxpayer is the loser.

I sent a response, a very concise two-page letter, to Steven King’s office in DC.

My congressional genius sent me a childlike textbook response telling me that the Federal Reserve System was needed to protect the free market from the sometimes violent highs and lows that occur within the market’s business cycle.

But here’s the deal… An non-tampered-with market doesn’t have a business cycle; not even anything like a business cycle. The Fed has a truckload of tricks that by their very design work together to cripple the marketplace. The business cycle is just one slight of hand.

Somewhere in the beginning of the letter I told him that I had not expected him to merely send me propaganda messages because I thought he was better than that.

I know and know of other people living here in Iowa district five who are of a similar mind, so toward the end I told him that if he didn’t figure out the truth about the Fed, he’d end up losing lots of support.

Anyone who refuses to sign this bill should be voted out. Not signing means their probably in cahoots with the NWO.

I contacted his office today and found out he is not going to co-sponser this bill. I told his assistant that if he does not start stepping up to the plate to redeem his self for the amnesty bill that he tried to get through congress 2 years ago, that I would do everything in my power to make sure he does not get re-elected next time around.

Giving money and power to government is like giving whiskey and car keys to teenage boys.

for discussion.

Oh, they just print money, money, money. We have to have a money tree, don't we? DUH, DUH, and DUH. I am not too hopeful about my rep, either.

asking her to have a discussion with Ron Paul about this matter, so that she can be further apprised on the reasons for 1207.

Also, have a look at her campaign donor list. If it's full of bankers, you can forget about her.

Yep...and it is a form letter. I just received the same exact letter from her yesterday. I followed up with a bit stronger reply...Ginny's economically ignorant, part of the status quo I'm afraid to say.

so they try to baffle us with their bullshit. Congress is keeping a close eye on the big picture? Checking out the Fed's books might somehow create a panic? The Fed was designed to be as independent of politics as possible? Huh?

ur congressman's got it all wrong:
"There is a concern, however, that revealing which banks are borrowing from the Fed on a short-term basis, or how much they are borrowing, would create uncertainty about those banks' health, and could create or spread a panic."

hiding which banks are borrowing and which are not is creating uncertainty. even good banks now look bad. guilt by silence. guilt by association. i'd say hiding the truth "could create or spread a panic."

at least your congressman's response doesn't look like a form letter.
