Tweet the Bill
August 16, 2009, Branford, CT – At least one person thinks a 1017 page healthcare bill is too big and plans to “Tweet” the entire house bill to bring awareness to that fact.
The American people deserve healthcare reform that is at the very least pragmatic and effective. A 1017 page bill too complex for the creators to explain it, even if they read it, is not what we need. 1017 pages sounds like a ton of unnecessary binding regulation, loopholes, payoffs and future breeding grounds for corruption, it could be done more effectively.
They, we can do better says freelance web developer Mark Johnson. And the lawmakers should take the time to research and create an elegant bill everyone can have confidence in.
“I’ve already broken the 1017 page bill down to almost nine-thousand 140 character Twitter “tweets” and will be tweeting until they’ve all been posted. If I can tweet it, our representatives should be able to read it and explain it to us.”, says Johnson. “Is that too much to ask?”
The tweeting begins August 17, 2009 and Mark will be tweeting as much as possible, night and day till it is done. Please show your support by following at Tweet the Bill
