Housing Lobby Pressuring DeMint on Mortgage Bailout Bill

Call Senator DeMint and let him know you support his efforts on this issue!

The housing lobby is frustrated by the delay in passing the Mortgage Bailout Bill and has decided to target Senators Jim DeMint (R-SC) and John Ensign (R-NV).  Recently, lobbyists representing housing industry have started putting pressure on these two Senators whom they view to be the source of the delay.

The motive of the housing lobby should be obvious - if the $300 billion bailout is passed, then they will stand to benefit greatly from not having to take responsibility for their bad loans.  However, Senators DeMint and Ensign have been on the right side of this issue from day one and are leading the fight to expose the bill for what it is: an irresponsible bailout for house flippers and their banks.

Please take a few minutes to call 1-866-928-3035 to express your support for Senators DeMint and Ensign and encourage them to continue to stand firm for limited, responsible government.

    The problem is not DeMint of Ensign; they are the good guys in that they are not ramming a bill that America has become united against. Everyone is talking about how this Bailout Stinks from top to bottom. Why do something your constituents don’t want? Why not try doing the right thing and being fiscally responsible, like the Blue Dog Democrats? Oh, wait, sorry, they all voted for the Bailout too, to increase the deficit by $22 Billion. That wasn’t very fiscally responsible now was it? Call them and urge them to go against this when it comes before the Senate. Let’s sto pthis one guys:
