We think the bill has a very good possibility of being approved by the
committee, but we can't take chances. Please call the undecided's to let
them know that you would like to see the bill pass the committee. Also,
please call the supporters to thank them for what they're doing!
It's also not too soon to let your own legislator know that you'd like to
see this bill pass. Don't know who your legislator is? Go to
