Netters: I've checked into Thomas about HR 2295 and so can you - go to: http://thomas.loc.gov/bss/d109query.html and put - hr 2295 - in the search box and all the info will come up It appears that Rep Walter B. Jones, Jr. is the one and ONLY sponsor of this bill (as of now) - that fact alone is significant - if others don't join in on the bandwagon...it will go away for sure. For more info on him: http://tinyurl.com/7sqj8 The bill has been referred to the Subcommittee on Education Reform which is under the House Education and Workforce committee. To see who makes up these committees: HE & W: http://tinyurl.com/cq3js ER: http://tinyurl.com/8m86c Should you want to contact any of these reps and add your $.02, please do so, even if they aren't your specific rep. From the little I did to get a resolution through the joint houses of Congress five years ago...I can only guess what an uphill struggle this bill will have. But if the press jumps on board (and it might if more locations have issues - NY Times mention today), things could escalate. SO, do your part and contact your rep or a rep from your area and let them know how you feel. -- ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Jody Newman Library Aide, retired Stow MA newjody@comcast.net ***************** Share your knowledge.
