I write to remind you that today is Call Wednesday. Please call your Representatives today. Let them know that you support H.R. 831: the Fair Wages for Workers with Disabilities Act, and you hope that your Member of Congress will become a co-sponsor.
<br>
<br>
At the end of this email, find a sample call script. If you have any questions about who to call, contact your local NFB Legislative Director.
<br>
<br>
Thank you so much for all of your hard work. Together, we will ensure that people with disabilities receive the fair wages we deserve.<br>
<br>
Yours in the fight for fair wages,<br>
<br>
Rose<br>
<br>
Sample Call Script for Call Wednesday:<br>
<br>
Good Morning. My name is ___________, and I support H.R. 831: the Fair Wages for Workers with Disabilities Act. I urge Representative _________ to please cosponsor this bill.
<br>
<br>
Currently, people with disabilities are legally being paid less than the minimum wage. Some are being paid as little as mere pennies per hour. I feel that this practice is wrong. H.R. 831 will responsibly phase out this antiquated, discriminatory and immoral
practice over a three year period. <br>
<br>
Can I count on Representative __________ to support people with disabilities by cosponsoring H.R. 831?
<br>
