    Is anyone else having trouble getting faxes through?

    I've been trying to fax all morning from work and only about half are going through. I've tried a few times since and a few more went. I can only hope that this is because we're blowing up their fax lines. That'd be a good thing!

    Re: Is anyone else having trouble getting faxes through?

    I faxed mine just before 8AM. They all made it through no problem.

    I hope we ARE tying up the phone lines.

    Today I've gotten at least 5 non-reptile owning friends and coworkers to either fax or call their congressperson as well.

    I called the Washington phone numbers and spoke to live people. I had no trouble in getting through, usually on 2 rings.

    I'm calling both DC and home office numbers. On the committee chair and ranking member, it took awhile for them to pick up, so I expect they're getting a lot of calls.

    Thumbs up Were making an impact!!!!!

    Keep calling and faxing a personal letter with your personal info to every number! Make sure you get every number! Keep going all day if you have to! I was told by one rep that they have recieved more calls on this than any other issue in the house right now! Here are all the numbers. Keep at it. If you get a busy line move to the next one!

    Time is critical, so please take the time to contact the following Congresspeople and ask them -- POLITELY -- to send this bill back to be amended to use the scientific names of the specific animals they're seeking to restrict, and not include common housepets along with animals of concern.

    Chair:

    John Conyers, Jr., (D) Michigan, 14th, email: john.conyers@mail.house.gov, phone: 202-225-5126, fax: 202-225-0072

    Ranking member:

    Lamar Smith, (R) Texas, 21st: phone: 202-225-4236, fax: 202-225-8628

    Key members for this bill:


    Tom Rooney, (R) Florida, 16th: phone: 202-225-5792, fax: 202-225-3132 (co-sponsor)

    Debbie Wasserman Schultz, (D) Florida, 20th: Phone: 202-225-7931, fax: 202-226-2052

    Robert Wexler, (D) Florida, 19th: phone: phone: 202-225-3001, fax: 202-225-5974 (co-sponsor)
    The bill's author; he is not on this committee, but contact his office also:

    Congressman Kendrick Meek (D) Florida; phone 202-225-4506; fax 202-226-0777

    Below, you'll find the remaining members of the Judiciary Committee. If you have time to contact them as well, that would be helpful, but at the very least scan the list and see if your represenative is there, and contact him or her.
