THE BILL IS ON THE MOVE IN CONGRESS - AND YOU CAN HELP!
The Coalition is working with supporters in Congress and throughout the profession on a strategy to see the bill enacted. We anticipate re-introduction in the Senate soon.
In the 113th Congress, Senators John Hoeven (R-ND) and Pat Leahy (D-VT) sponsored the bill, S. 1458. The Coalition has assembled a sizable list of bipartisan supporters in the House.
Sign the National Petition and Write to Congress urging your Senator or House Member to cosponsor the bill!
