• In November, AMAC members sent over 14,900 messages to CMS Administrator Chiquita Brooks- LaSure telling her not to raise the Medicare Part B premium and deductible. Shortly after this initiative, US Senators Bernie Sanders (I-VT) and Ron Wyden (D-OR) who is the Chairman of the Senate Finance Committee, both appealed to the Biden Administration to limit any Part B premium increase. • In November and December, New Jersey AMAC members sent over 3,230 messages to their state legislators telling them to oppose the recission of a resolution they previously passed in support of the Article V Convention of States. Unfortunately, the party-line vote to rescind New Jersey’s Article V application was successful. It’s long been recognized in Washington, D.C. and more specifically on Capitol Hill and in state capitals across the country, that direct constituent engagement with representatives’ offices is a powerful indicator of public interest and concern about key issues. The greater the amount of constituent interest, the greater the level of importance of the issue. Additionally, modes and methods of how constituents communicate their concerns is an indicator of issue importance – phone calls, emails, and in-person meetings typically indicate that for every one constituent inquiry there are likely numerous other constituents who also care about these issues. AMAC members made over 735,000 contacts with members of the US House and Senate, state legislators, and the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services during 2021! There is no other organization within the conservative movement that certifies the hundreds of thousands of active, engaged advocates delivering the grassroots results like AMAC Action does. This effort is purely organic with zero dollars spent on outside resources like robo-calling. All grassroots advocacy results are exclusively driven by the AMAC membership. CALL-TO-ACTION TESTIMONIALS 2021 was indeed busy. Part of what makes doing advocacy work on behalf of the membership so satisfying is the opportunity to work alongside of so many passionate, dedicated members of AMAC. Your love of God and country is profound and inspires the AMAC Action team to double-down on our efforts to fight the Left’s assault on the Constitution and our freedoms. If a particular call-to-action campaign in which you participated did not get the hoped-for results, do not believe that your effort was a waste of time -- it wasn’t. Just as your patriotism inspires the AMAC Action team, your messages to elected representatives gives them the strength and courage they need to fight for you in Washington, D.C. and in states across the country. We know this to be true because some of them have told us how your support humbles them and reinforces their resolve: “AMAC members were critical in grassroots support for H.B. 1300. Without it, we’re not sure we would have had the support to pass it to the Governor.” Representative Seth Grove, (PA House District 196), sponsor of H.B. 1300, Voting Rights Protection Act Chairman, House State Government Committee “AMAC members played a crucially important role in helping Arizona lead the nation on important issues like election integrity and putting an end to the teaching of hateful, racist Critical Race Theory in our schools and government institutions. The thousands of emails and calls from AMAC patriots helped us to stay the course and put these common-sense reforms into law, despite tremendous media and partisan opposition.
