Action Alert: American Health Care Act

art credit: Click Americana

From Ralph King at the Main Street Patriots blog:

Action Alert: American Health Care Act

The GOP should be ashamed of themselves — Speaker Ryan for introducing such a bad bill, and the so-called conservatives for allowing him to take the lead on repealing Obamacare!  After seven years of campaigning to repeal Obamacare and Paul Ryan’s “American Health Care Act” is the best they can come up with?!?
While we applaud some members of the GOP fighting to make Speaker Ryan’s bill better – had some of them fought this hard against him becoming Speaker – we would not be in the position we are today.
Knowing the tentacles of Obamacare would run deep when the over 2,000-page Obamacare bill was passed in 2009, most of us knew it would not be easy to repeal, and there was no one magic bill that would undo it.  Speaker Ryan needs to understand that his American Health Care Act is a terrible starting point, and while no starting point will satisfy those of us who want Obamacare repealed in its entirety, it is a starting point if amendments are allowed.
In the Senate, Mitch McConnell has already said he is open for amendments. In addition, as proposed by Rep. Louie Gohmert, the “Byrd Rule” needs to be thrown out so that more amendments are allowed during the reconciliation process.
If amendments are allowed in both the House & the Senate, and if “We the People” remain engaged, then hopefully something acceptable can be cobbled together.  President Trump is a deal maker – and if we do not get a good deal, we can urge him to use his pen and veto the final version of the bill.
As the bill stands, without substantive amendments, it is a non-starter. The legislative process needs to be played out, and we need to remain engaged.
Call Speaker Paul Ryan (202) 225-3031 and tell him to allow Amendments to be made to the American Health Care Act.
Call your Congressman and tell them to push Speaker Ryan to allow amendments. To find your Congress members contact information click here.

Spirit of America Rally Cleveland
Report 
 Keynote speaker Rev. Darrell Scott greets patriots

 Steve Loomis, Cleveland Police Patrolman's Assoc.
Keynote speaker Rev. Darrell Scott
Main Street Patriots founder and rally host, Ralph King


THANK YOU to all who emailed with positive messages, patriots who contributed to the GoFundMe page or the Big Box at the Rally, and THANK YOU to everyone who joined us at the Spirit of America Rally! And a big shout out to The Cleveland Police Department, who were there on horseback, on bikes, on foot, on rooftops, and onstage. 

Next up on this blog ~ Spirit of America Rally Cleveland: The Video. If you could not make the rally (or if you would like to enjoy some of it again), I'll post several segments later today. Meanwhile, cleveland.com updated its report this morning:

Supporters of President Donald Trump are scheduled to gather in downtown Cleveland and nine other locations around the state on Saturday to show support for the newly elected commander in-chief .
The prime organizer of the "Spirit of America" rallies is the Main Street Patriots., whose slogan is "It's not about left or right, it's about right or wrong."
. . .
The rallies are geared less toward countering Democratic opposition to Trump and more to expressing displeasure with the establishment Republicans that have not rallied around the new president, said Bedford resident Ralph King, who besides being a founder of Main Street Patriots, was a Trump elector and cofounder of the Cleveland Tea Party.
"Donald Trump's biggest road block is going to be the Republicans," King said. 
. . .

Other locations hosting 'Spirit of America" events in Ohio are Toledo, Belmont County, Boardman, Jackson, Zanesville, Marietta, Mansfield area, Clark County and Cincinnati.

In the news: ‘Spirit Of America’ Rallies This Week




The Spectacle Blog, a feature of the online magazine The American Spectator, ran an article on the Spirit of America rallies this week across the country. Cleveland’s own Ralph King was quoted!

Main Street Patriots Gather Nationwide For ‘Spirit Of America’ Rallies This Week

Americans throughout the country will be rallying this week to show support for President Trump and his policy agenda.
The rallies will be taking place in nearly 60 cities, with some taking place on Monday, while others are planned later in the week, including on Saturday. [See full schedule, with locations.]
“These rallies are inclusive, non-partisan, and open to anyone supporting President Trump in his efforts to bring back manufacturing jobs to America, put the security of our nation ahead of political correctness, improve our infrastructure, revitalize the inner cities and secure our nation’s borders,” stated Debbie Dooley, one of the rallies’ organizers, in a press release.
Although the rallies are to show support for President Trump and his agenda, the Spirit of America rallies “have no direct tie with the White House or Trump’s campaign organization,” rally organizer Ralph King told Cleveland.com.
“This is literally grassroots,” King stated. “Whether you’re doing this with 1,000 people or you’re doing this with a handful, get out there. That’s what it’s about.”
Since the surprise election of President Trump in November, left-wing agitators and disappointed Democrats have engaged in raucous protests and riotous actions in various cities across the country.
In a way, the Spirit of America rallies are a grassroots’ counter to the left’s protests.
“This is not about left or right. This is about right and wrong. Enough is enough! Our voices will be heard in a peaceful approach, and we will continue to let others know that we are proud of our president and of our country,” stated Barbara Hemingway, a host of a March 4 rally in Sarasota, Florida.
For more information on the March 4 rally in downtown Cleveland,go to our previous announcement here.

March 4 Spirit of America Rally in Cleveland : logistics


UPDATES on logisticsVoinovich Park is accessible from the Waterfront RTA Rapid line. Nearby downtown street parking is limited; there are public parking garages in the area (such as The Huntington Park Garage - but they are not cheap!).

The FREE C-Line Trolley can get RTA rapid riders from Tower City close to the corner of E. 9th and St. Clair; the C-Line runs approx. every 10 minutes starting at 11am on Saturday. (Don’t worry when it turns south on East Ninth; it meanders back through Playhouse Square, and then turns north on East 12th). After the rally, pick it up where you got off to get back to Tower City.

Please check back on this blog for more updates. Below is the announcement from last Sunday re-posted:
