S.614 UPDATE

Senator Tom Coburn, (R-OK) has now signed on to co-sponsor S.614. There are now 37 on board, with 30 more still needed.

Are your Senators on the list? If not, WHY NOT? Perhaps this is not on their radar screen. After all, they do have quite a few things on their plates. So, please take this opportunity, while the Senate is in RECESS, to stop by and make your case.

With all the national support for the bill, your task should be easy:
  • Air Force Association
  • VFW, American Legeion
  • 99's, Reserve Officer's Association
  • Association of the United States Navy
  • Enlisted Assocition of the National Guard
  • Military Order of World Wars
Attend that event -- that town hall, book signing, coffee, barbeque--whatever the Senator is attending--and make your case. This is citizenship in action and it is for all the right reasons.

If you need help, email me and I'll give you a pep talk!

God bless America!
