The Senate is going to meet May 31st to prevent the shut down from happening. This was their most successful vote on Saturday. 57 out of 60 votes needed. http://politics.nytimes.com/congress/votes/114/senate/1/194

Notice all Democrat Senators voted for it. They are going to spend all this week trying to bring over 3 more Senators by offering to add amendments to the bill.

The time to act is now, not May 31st minutes before the vote. Does anyone know how to reach out to Senators and let them know that we want them to let section 215 of the Patriot Act to expire, and not to vote for USA Freedom Act simply because a few new amendments might be added in the next week?
