Sorry, I do not have the link to the petition I asked you to sign - it was a

request post from Pelosi called " Poison " -

I tried to send it on but the request box to sign the petition did not

transmit. I don't know how to get the link (technoidiot!); if anyone can find

it and send it to the list I would appreciate it! Thanks, Dr. JM

Jaquelyn --

In the hours after Republicans rammed through their poison-pill packed version

of the payroll tax cut extension, over 97,000 of you stood with President

Obama’s veto threat.

Can you help us reach 100,000 strong before Midnight tonight?

Sign our petition right now telling House Republicans to stop holding the

payroll tax cut hostage to Tea Party demands >>

The Republican plan would force millions of seniors to pay more for health care

and one million unemployed Americans to sacrifice their benefits -- but refuse

to ask the wealthiest 1% or special interests like Big Oil to sacrifice one red

cent.

Now, if Speaker Boehner, Cantor, and Tea Party Republicans refuse to back

down from their outrageous demands, the government could be forced to shut down

tomorrow at midnight.

We cannot allow Republicans to shut down the government and we cannot go home

for the holidays with 160 million Americans facing a $1,000 tax increase on

January 1, 2012.

Stand with President Obama’s veto threat and help us put pressure on the

Republicans by signing our petition today >>

Thanks for acting fast,

Pelosi

P.S. After you sign, please forward this email to 3 friends and encourage them
