UPDATE: Callers should be aware the Governor’s office is now telling people the Governor was never going to sign an executive order. After the debacle yesterday where he was apparently going to rely on the actions of an “independent” commission, I would say he probably isn’t going to do it now either! Keep calling!
Here is the action alert we just sent out to our members regarding the Obamacare Health Insurance Exchange in Missouri. Many have responded they have taken action already! If you are not on our mailing list – click here to join.

Stop Obamacare in Missouri! |
|
Last August, 71.1% of Missourians voted against the individual mandate of Obamacare, thereby sending a clear message that Obamacare was not welcome in Missouri! Now, Governor Jay Nixon is prepared to sign an executive order to implement a major piece of Obamacare: the Health Care Insurance Exchange.The legislature considered the Health Care Insurance Exchange and decided not to implement it. Now, the Governor and his bureaucrats in the Missouri Department of Insurance have apparently decided that the elected representatives of “We the People” were wrong for supporting the overwhelming vote on Prop C. As a result, they are taking a back-door approach, establishing not only the exchange but effectively implementing a major piece of Obamacare in our state. You have an opportunity to bring this back-door approach to an end. Your immediate attention is required!First, call the Governor’s office: (573) 751-3222. The Governor is challenging the 71.1% vote on Proposition C. Let the Governor’s office know that you are opposed to mandated health care and opposed to any attempt to implement Obamacare in Missouri in any way, including via the Health Care Insurance Exchange!
Second, if you are able, attend a rally at the State Capitol tomorrow, beginning at 10:15 on the south lawn. If you supported Prop C, you will want to continue the fight for current and future generations!
Here are some things you can do to prepare for the rally:
1. Forward this email to everyone you know.
2. Call everyone you know if they don’t use the internet.
3. Plan your carpool.
4. If you cannot make it, please send someone in your place.
5. If you’re bringing signs (no signs with “handles” allowed), please keep them proper and respectful (e.g., “Listen to the People!” or “No Means No!”)
6. Make preparations to put messages on your car for the trip to Jefferson City.
Thank you for your activism. We must remain engaged to protect our liberties.

Your message says the Rally will be “tomorrow” at the State Capitol. Does “tomorrow” mean September 17, 2011?
Yes it does.
Update to Missouri Rally at the Capitol on 9/17, from “I Heard The People Say”
“Please note that the rally had to be moved from the South Lawn of the Capitol building to the Veteran’s Memorial on the north side of the building (river side). It is near the huge fountain and you can’t miss it.
“After the rally, there will be time for you to go to lunch briefly. If you’re able to stay, at 1:00, we will resume in Hearing Room 3 in the Capitol basement (House side), where you’ll meet many grassroots organizers across the state. We will be discussing various, critical activist agenda items for the months ahead as we approach 2012. Join us to learn and be motivated!
Make sure you check http://www.iheardthepeoplesay.org before you leave for Jefferson City to catch any last-minute updates. “
It is well past the time that “We The People” demand our rights at both the State and Federal level of government. The people we have elected to representative us start doing the things we want them to do, not what they want to do. If there thoughts about a particular proposal are in conflict with a majority of their constituents, then those of the constituents should prevail. Our forefathers intended for the United States Government should be one “Of The People, By The People, and For The People”. They risked their property and their very lives to make such a govern-ment possible. Can we do less to protect what they have given us? We do not yet have a dictatorship, and God willing we will never have a dictatorship, even though it sometimes looks like that is already the case. It is our time to act, in any way necessary to keep our present government intact. We must take control back from the ones trying to destroy it.
we the people” demand our righhts, in both state and federal governments
I urge you to stop this nonsense now.
Carl,
Please post pictures of the rally.
