ACTION: Call, fax or send a postcard to your U.S. Rep. Don’t email!! (Most don’t keep e-mail, as they’re not legally bound to do so!!) Or better yet, stop by his/her local office.

Tell him/her you demand the language be re-instated, as it had been written, or you will campaign with every breath in your body to get them out of office!! [Find your U. S.
