For Immediate Attention

 

Hi all:

 

 

I hope you are well. We have a chance to get our Newsline funding
legislation passed this year, but we all need to act, and quickly!

 

The bill numbers are A3144A (Pretlow) and S2924A (Parker. The Pretlow bill
is currently in the Assembly Ways and Means Committee, and the Parker bill
is currently in the Senate Finance Committee.

 

We need to urge the Assembly Speaker, Carl E. Heastie, and the Senate
Majority Leader, Senator Andrea Stewart-Cousins, to bring the bills to the
Assembly and Senate floors. They will pass both houses if they get to the
floor, but they have to get there first.

 

When you email or call, please give your name and indicate where you live,
for instance, Ray Wayne, Sheepshead Bay, Brooklyn. Indicate that you are
asking the Speaker or Senate Majority Leader to bring this bill to the
floor; give the bill number, for the Assembly, A3144A (Pretlow, and for the
Senate, S2924A (Parker).

 

If you use Newsline, indicate that, and explain how this service helps you,
for example, in school, in your job, or even for leisure activities. If you
are the parent of a blind child, state that, and explain how Newsline helps
your child.

 

The phone number for Assembly Speaker Heasty is 518-455-3791. Speaker
Heastie's  corrected email address is Speaker at nyassembly.gov
<mailto:Speaker at nyassembly.gov> .  

 

The phone number for Senator Stewart-Cousins is 518-455-2715. Her email
address is scousins at nysenate.gov <mailto:scousins at nysenate.gov> 

 

Note that her last name is hyphenated, but her email address does not
include a hyphen. If you cannot make phone calls during business hours due
to work or school commitments, you may leave a voicemail for either one at
any time.

 

 

Please copy me on all emails at

 

Raywayne1959 at gmail.com <mailto:Raywayne1959 at gmail.com> 

 

Note to screen reader users, I use my first name, Ray, not my first initial,
as I previously did. There is no period, hyphen, or underscore in my email
address.

 

We can get this done if we all act. If you have any questions, you may
contact any of us on the legislation committee. Thank you all.

 

Legislation Committee

Ray Wayne, Chair
