| Friend -- Last week, Jeremy asked you to host a "Time to Deliver" Call Party this Tuesday, October 20th, to help us set an OFA record of 100,000 calls to Congress placed or committed to in a single day. Now, I wanted to share some exciting news: President Obama will be joining your party via an exclusive live webcast to encourage your guests and thank you for your role in passing health reform. These call parties couldn't come at a more important time -- the final Senate committee just passed their version of the plan, so the debate is about to move to the full Congress for the first time. And the insurance industry lobby is throwing everything they've got at us to distort the issues and derail progress. Our voices must be heard. Hosting a Time to Deliver Call Party on the 20th is an easy but extremely powerful way you can help pass health reform in 2009. So are you in? http://my.barackobama.com/deliver Thanks so much, Mitch P.S. -- Here's Jeremy's note from last week with more info: --------------------Original Message-------------------- From: Jeremy Bird, BarackObama.com Subject: Host a "Time to Deliver" Call Party? Friend -- After months of negotiations, the entire House and Senate will soon start debating the final plans for health insurance reform. You've called your representatives, but we can't stop there -- if the American people are going to drown out the D.C. lobbyists, we need everyone who supports reform to weigh in. So here's the plan: On Tuesday, October 20th, OFA volunteers will gather at "Time to Deliver" Call Parties in living rooms like yours across the country. We'll call friendly voters whose voices matter in this debate, talk to them about the President's plan, and ask them to call on their representatives to support reform. Our goal? 100,000 calls to Congress placed or committed to in a single day. It's an ambitious goal, but the stakes couldn't be higher -- and if we hit it, we cannot be ignored. The whole plan begins by finding a place for OFA volunteers to gather -- in Washington and across the country. And that's why I'm turning to you. Can you host a Time to Deliver Call Party on Tuesday, October 20th?  Hosting a call party is surprisingly easy. No special experience is required, and we'll provide simple step-by-step instructions. If you can print out some call sheets and info about the President's plan -- and make sure volunteers have a comfortable place to sit -- you can host a successful Call Party. You can invite your friends, we'll invite other OFA supporters in your area, and together you'll have a great time while making a huge difference. If we can get 100,000 calls to Congress placed or committed to on a single day it will set a new OFA record -- and really shake up the debate in Washington. But it won't be easy. Everything hinges on finding volunteer leaders like you who are willing to open your doors and give supporters in your area a place to gather. Can we count on you?
