"Please rest assured that I will keep your views firmly in mind as this important matter is discussed in U.S. House of Representatives."
Why oh why, can't anyone just say, "No!"
"I will not support this bill, or anything like it inserted into any other legislation to make it more difficult to oppose."
"I will work to amend or remove such wording from bills that this type of ban hitch-hikes on. And if those measure fail, I will oppose and vote no on the overall bill! No exceptions!"
See how easy that is...Heck if I can do it, seems to me that would be easy for them to state, then stick to your guns after all is said and done...
