As I wrote the other day, the Senate has passed its version of the Economic Stimulus Plan, which includes a tax credit of up to $15,000 for all home purchases. The House and Senate will now begin negotiations on a Conference report that both Chambers will need to approve for passage.
YOU can make an impact on the outcome by making an important phone call to your U.S. Representative TODAY. Please call and urge your Representative to speak to Chairman Charles Rangle, Chairman of the House Ways and Means Committee, and urge him to retain the Senate tax credit language in the final stimulus bill. You can reach your Representative's office easily by calling the Capitol Hill Switchboard at: 202-224-3121. If your Representative is not able to take your call personally, ask to speak with the staff person responsible for the stimulus plan. If you're not sure who your representative is, you can go to http://www.house.gov/ and enter your zip code in the upper left corner.
Time is of the essence. The House and Senate will immediately begin work to finalize the Economic Stimulus plan and send on to the President for his signature as quickly as possible.
This is truly what makes our country the greatest - the ability for all of us to make a difference in the political process! But it does require you to participate!
