Hello USGLC Board Members, As expected, Rand Paul is causing us problems - and the votes are expected tomorrow (Friday.) The Senate is in the midst of 50 hours of debate on the FY2014 Budget and Paul has already filed a half a dozen cutting amendments to the International Affairs Budget and we are expecting more by morning. Senator Mike Lee also has an amendment to zero out the Export-Import Bank. While we don't expect to lose (though we are taking nothing for granted) we want to stop Senators from making it a habit to support Paul and Lee on these amendments. We are now in full organizational mobilization. Tod Preston will be emailing board members directly to ask you to reach out to select Senators. In the meantime, please call me if you have any questions or ideas. I thank you ahead of time for your help. Liz P.S. Here is our target list (Senators that supported Paul in past; Democrats up in 2014 from "red states"). If you can help with any of them, please let Tod know at tpreston@usglc.org<mailto:tpreston@usglc.org>: * Alexander (R-TN) * Baucus (D-MT) * Barrasso (R-WY) * Burr (R-NC) * Coburn (R-OK) * Cornyn (R-TX) * Crapo (R-ID) * Cruz (R-TX) * Fischer (R-NE) * Flake (R-AZ) * Grassley (R-IA) * Hagan (D-NC) * Heller (R-NV) * Inhofe (R-OK) * Johnson (R-WI) * Lee (R-UT) * Pryor (D-AR) * Risch (R-ID) * Scott (R-SC) * Sessions (R-AL) * Thune (R-SD) * Vitter (R-LA) * Wicker (R-MS) Liz Schrayer | President 202-689-8900 | liz@schrayer.com<mailto:liz@schrayer.com> Schrayer & Associates, Inc. 1129 20th Street NW, Suite 600 Washington, DC 20036 www.schrayer.com<http://www.schrayer.com>
