<br>
<br>
This coming Tuesday, May 10, the US Senate is scheduled to consider the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA). It is important that we contact Senators Blumenthal and Murphy to urge them to include Space Available, S 2596, in this act. The House has done
so in their version of the NDAA, so that's not a concern at this point. Contact info for our senators is below.

If you wish to e-mail them, that can be done through their websites. <br>
<br>
We may be getting close on this one, so let's not let up? <br>
<br>
Everybody have a great weekend! <br>
