KO's call to action - Free Clinics in all 6 states where Dem Senators are not with us

[Ruby the Liberal]

"I'll donate - will you?" -- KO

He is proposing having the LA/Houston-style mobile clinics in NE, MT, LA, etc every weekend until this gets through their heads how bad the problem is.

Edit: BabylonSister added the link to the people who can make this happen, per Rachel: http://freeclinics.us/

Edit 2: Seems they do not have an open donation link as yet. Even if you don't plan to donate, consider writing them to ask for a donation option that does not involve a membership application.

Edit 3: Also emailed the staffers at Countdown to ask Keith to clarify where to send donations.

1. Rachel now promoting this in her opening.

:applause:

[Auggie]

2. I'll donate

I'm broke, but I'll send what I can

[Ruby the Liberal]

7. Me too. On UC, but damned if I won't find some cash for the cause!

[tekisui]

3. Brilliant idea!

This is what I have been looking for! Take to action! Create the media story!

[babylonsister]

4. Here's the website for Nat'l Assn of Free Clinics-have at it!

5. Sis - are these the people who put on the LA and Houston events?

[babylonsister]

8. I believe so; the graphic from this group is the one Rachel had up. nt

10. Beauty. Was typing and only listening. Will go donate now.

Thanks! :hi:

[Ruby the Liberal]

11. I see membership options, but not donations. Am I missing it?

[babylonsister]

12. I don't think there is an option to donate-YET! They don't know what

just happened. Someone will be around with a donation site shortly, I bet.

[Ruby the Liberal]

13. I just emailed them through their contact page

and said that KO put out a call to action, RM referenced them as the people who can make it happen, and that non-members need to know how to help fund them.

Hopefully others are doing the same thing!

[babylonsister]

15. Great idea! This is how the intertubes work; get people fired up,

and miracles happen! :toast:

[Ruby the Liberal]

17. Just updated the OP to ask others to do the same

And right back atcha. To you! :toast:

6. Thank you so much Keith. I'm on board.

[Catshrink]

9. I'd love to see one in Iowa to embarrass the shit out of Grassley.

He'll never go along with a PO, but it'll be fun to watch his reaction. Or put one in Bachmann's district and watch her call it a "Death Clinic."

[Catshrink]

16. Or one offering prenatal care outside Kyl's Phoenix office.

[bluethruandthru]

14. I'm in. n/t

[nolabear]

18. I will absolutely donate.

And I hope they keep track of who does. This needs faces, numbers, voices.

[XOKCowboy]

19. If they held ones in Tulsa and Oklahoma City they'd be overrun....

and it'd embarrass the hell out of those pricks Coburn and Inhofe.
