Should we organize a rally at Senator Bob Casey's Office in Bellefonte (and aroudn the state) to protest CapandTax?

Now that this job killing cost raising American enterprise gutting monstrosity passed the house, it will head to the Senate. We need to let Casey Jr. know that WE THE PEOPLE oppose this bill that is antithetical to all that we stand for!

Congress is on summer recess. I think we, and our counterparts throughout the commonwealth should schedule protests at the Senate offices of Bobby Casey (and Arlen Spector). Any thoughts? Who is with me? WE SURROUND THEM, and they need to know it!

The phone calls to congressmen didn't have the full impact. Peaceful Protest Rallies at the district offices would garner media attention and help focus LOCAL media and our neighbors on this issue!

Let's pick a day, and coordinate with other groups around the state (maybe the country?) and have peaceful anti-tax, anti-job killer, anti- price of fuel increase rallies throughout the country. This can't be voted on in 'secret' with no one focusing on it again, or America will lose!

I recommend choosing a weekday (not 4th of July) so there will be staffers in the office and the local media will be willing to cover it. Here is a list of local offices:

I think we should try to coordinate an event across the State and the Nation at LOCAL offices of Senators to stop cap and tax. I am thinking during the August Recess, before C&T and healthcare come up for votes in the Senate. Local protests would galvanize local opposition and garner local media coverage. Any thoughts? No experience in organizing here, and was unable to attend on 6/30. Any help or feedback?
