The word we are hearing is that the calls are getting through. We had a friend send to his Statewide distribution list of 50k people. We have an action alert e-mail that has gone out from the AHA and Beer Advocate.
Some of the people that you speak to when you make these calls may not sound happy. They are used to taking a handful of calls a day. They aren't used to getting flooded. Keep the calls coming, if they are less than cordial to you, don't return any attitude! Be polite, let them know that this issue is important to you and that you want to be sure your ELECTED representatives know you opinion.
Sue Spears, the Rules Clerk, is a super nice lady. She won't mind taking your call (334)242-7853. If you can only make 1 call, that's the one to make.
It is still perfectly fine to continue to call all the Rules Committee members as well as your Senator however. That is the preferred method. Even if they tell you to only call Sue, call them back tomorrow!
