[Ct-nfb] Congressman Joe Courtney

[Justin Salisbury]

Fellow Federationists:

This morning, Congressman Joe Courtney's name was added to the list of cosponsors of HR 188, the Transitioning to Integrated and Meaningful Employment (TIME) Act, which will phase out the discriminatory practice of paying workers with disabilities less than the minimum wage.

Now, when we contact Congressman Larson, Congressman Himes, Congresswoman DeLauro, and Congresswoman Esty, we can ask them to join Congressman Joe Courtney in cosponsoring HR 188. Please do not forget to copy me on all communications with our legislators' offices about our bills!

Legislative committee members: I will be in touch with you all again soon so that we can regroup and ramp up our efforts!

Yours,

Justin Salisbury
