Subject: Call Your Senator Free at EXXON's Expense (fwd)


THIS WORKS!!!!!!!  I tried it.  If you have an opinion, express it now
before they disconnect this line.  distribute this little gem wherever you
can.

Here's an 800 number that actually works and lets you call congress.
It was set up by some big business group that wants to destroy
regulations on the environment.  But anyone can use it to call their
senator and urge them not to cut Pell Grants and the Student Loan
Interest Exemption.  PASS THIS ON!!  the number is 800-444-1555.

The only catch is that they ask you to say your first name and last
name and address, separated by the "pound" key on your touch tone
phone.  No problem.  Just say:

Abbie (#)
Hoffman (#)
and then enter an address where you can see what kind of propaganda
these people want to send you.   Then they connect you to your Senator.
