(210) 714-3656 is a Research Call

- Transcript Hi, this is Congressman Joaquin Castro at 210-348-8216. Over the last few weeks, my office has heard from thousands of San Antonians who are worried about potentially massive changes to Social Security, public education, worker protections and other programs that people rely on. Starting right now, I'm hosting a telephone town hall to talk about how I'm responding to these things, and I want to hear from you. To join you, just stay on the line. If you have a question, press Star three. The call will begin shortly. Please hold while we connect you to your Access Live event. This Access Live event is currently in progress. Please note that this call may be monitored, recorded or rebroadcast. Well, so we are working in different ways, basically, to make sure that this guy does not have control, whether it's the VA or doing away with the Department of Education or the Department of Labor or anything else. All right. All right, y'all. I wanted to talk a little bit about the VA and also about the nih. A few years ago, I was diagnosed with cancer in 2022. In 2023, I had major surgery, and I was in the hospital for 10 days. And when I was in the hospital, I walked around because they make you walk after the surgery. And I passed the cancer ward for kids. And I thought about that this week because one thing that Republicans are trying to do now, or Donald Trump and Elon Musk are trying to do, is cut funding for the National Institute of Health. One of the things it does is cancer research, but it also does things like research on diabetes, which, as you all know, is rampant around San Antonio. And I don't believe that the best way to fight cancer or fight diabetes is to cut funding for important research. So, again, we're going to fight. When they try to cut that in the budget, we will pick up that fight. Same thing with Veterans Affairs. I met a few days ago with veterans in San Antonio.

Great service! We really appreciate those robocalls and telemarketers being screened out. Now we never answer the phone before the second ring.
— Tom D, Nov 29th, 9:58am
Love it

I love Nomorobo because it actually works!

I think it has helped, but quite a few numbers (including Gallup) get through with a single ring, which is less annoying than talking to them, but very annoying, nonetheless because these callers tend to call every day. I suspect this has something to do with the fact that I use Vonage SimulRing to call my home and cell at the same time, but I'm not sure. I've learned that reporting a problem has no effect (but, heck, you're offering a free service, so ...), which I why I didn't bother.Of course, the 2014 political campaign season was still unbearable, and I don't look forward to 2016, but I think your service is a great help, and I appreciate it.

Finally a tool that that is more persistent than telemarketers! Thank you Nomorobo! The only thing that could improve it would be if it hung up on the calls before the phone even rang!
— Beth C, Nov 29th, 11:05am
Love it. Wonderful not to be disturbed by unwanted calls
— Maria D, Nov 29th, 11:15am
I echo others comments. Received 14 calls of which 12 were in November. Thanks Nomorobo.
