Great idea! I'd totally do it, but my congressman is a freshman this year, and has been working against CPSIA! I'd love to take out Sen. Specter though... :D

"take out" sounds horrible.... I mean "beat in an election"

:D

Jon Kyle, our one of our congressmen from Arizona voted against the CPSIA law to begin with. He was one of very few. Great idea.

First:

Dec 19, 2007: This bill passed in the House of Representatives by roll call vote. The vote was held under a suspension of the rules to cut debate short and pass the bill, needing a two-thirds majority. This usually occurs for non-controversial legislation.

The totals were 407 Ayes, 0 Nays, 25 Present/Not Voting


Mar 6, 2008: This bill passed in the Senate by roll call vote.

The totals were 79 Ayes, 13 Nays, 8 Present/Not Voting.

Jul 31, 2008: After passing both the Senate and House, a conference committee is created to work out differences between the Senate and House versions of the bill. A conference report resolving those differences passed in the Senate, paving the way for enactment of the bill, by roll call vote.

The totals were 89 Ayes, 3 Nays, 8 Present/Not Voting.

Here is another discussion that goes along with this discussion. Actually it is just an informative posting about what we can do to make sure that these people are working for us and not against us.

Anything and everything that we can do to clean up this mess!!!
