<DIV>Good Morning again everyone,</DIV>
<DIV>Congressman Larsons Senior Legislative Assistant, David Sitcovsky spoke
with me acknowledging my e-mail and recalling the February meeting. He then
stated that it was an oversight that the congressman had not signed on as
co-sponsor yet. Also, that the congress is out of session until September and
any action would have to wait till then. Of course that is just around the
corner so the fight continues.<BR><BR></DIV>

<DIV>Hi all,</DIV>
<DIV>I was fortunate to meet with Congressman Larson in February along with
Trevor, Betty and Bob and my husband George. He was attentive and shook our
hands saying that he would co-sponsor HR3086. I have e-mailed him in
the past and did so again this morning. I will call as well. Keep up the
good work everyone!<BR><BR></DIV>

class=gmail_quote>Rich and All,<BR>Instead of leaving a message with the
person who answers the phone or another intern, I recommend contacting
Congresswoman DeLauro's fellow who is handling this issue: Matt Doyle.
Ask for him immediately when her Washington office picks up.
You can also e-mail Matt at:<BR><A
title=mailto:matt.doyle@mail.house.gov
href="mailto:matt.doyle@mail.house.gov"
target=_blank>matt.doyle@mail.house.gov</A><BR>After asking Matt to let
Congresswoman DeLauro know you want her to co-sponsor H.R. 3086, you may
also want to let him know that an intern with whom you left this message
may not be communicating this concern to the rest of the staff.<BR>Thanks
for your patience and diligence.<BR>Nathanael<BR><BR>On 23.08.2012 11:09,

unfair, discriminatory, and immoral. Thanks to those who<BR>have
contacted Senator Blumenthal’s office requesting his support<BR>by
introducing a companion bill in the Senate.<BR><BR>To date,
Congressman Joe Courtney is our only Congressman to<BR>co-sponsor H.R.
3086, the Fair Wages for Workers with Disabilities<BR>Act. We are
asking members who are in other Congressional districts<BR>to call
their Congressperson urging their co-sponsorship of this<BR>important
legislation. Below is contact information:<BR><BR>Congressman Jim
