[Colorado-talk] End the Book Famine, Call Today!

[Dan Burke]

Greetings all -

We need to make some phone calls about Marrakesh once again. Here's
what John Pare said earlier this week -

The Senate Judiciary Committee will be voting on the Marrakesh
Implementation Act, S. 2559, this week on Thursday, May 10. We need to
build more cosponsor support for this bill before that date. Senator
Grassley is the bill sponsor...

Remember, there was already a hearing in Foreign Relations at which
Scott LaBarre testified. But the bill has to go through two
committees, and Judiciary is the second committee.

And neither Colorado Senator is on this bill, but they should be.

First, Senator Bennet has given indications he would cosponsor, but
his name has not yet appeared on the bill. While Scott LaBarre is
reaching out to his staff, how about we show that the NFB of Colorado
means not only smart, engaged leadership but also  smart collective
action on the part of an engaged membership. You can call Senator
Bennet's ofice at 202-224-5852.

What you say is:
I am so-and-so and a member of the NFB of Colorado. I urge Sen. Bennet
to cosponsor S. 2559, the Marrakesh Treaty Implementation Act.

Senator Gardner serves on the Foreign Relations Committee and Scott
says he came up and shook his hand prior to the Foreign Relations
Committee hearing last month. But he's still not a cosponsor of S.
2559.  You can call his office at:

202-224-5941.

Say the same as above.

Thanks all!

Dan
