How nice  to get this update on HR 164 on Memorial Day weekend, yet we need 
to take the  opportunity next week to ask our senators to cosponsor S 346. 
You can be  connected with your Senate offices by calling the Capitol 
switch-board at  202-225-3121. 
See Jesse's email below.

>        Yesterday the United States House of Representatives passed its 
version of the  fiscal year 2015 National Defense Authorization Act, HR 4435.  
I am  pleased to let you know that once again the House included an 
amendment that  would allow Service Disabled Veterans to participate in the space 
available  program; this is what we have been pushing for in HR 164.  Next 
Monday we  will celebrate Memorial Day, and I am calling for a week of action 
to build  support for S 346; this is our Senate companion  bill offered by 
Senator  Tester.  We must urge Senators to cosponsor S 346; Senators can be 
added  as a cosponsor by contacting Jorge Rueda on Senator Tester’s staff.  I 
 have listed the 18 Current Cosponsors of S 346 below.  We need to  
increase this number.  The Senate will soon take up consideration of its  version 
of the National Defense Authorization Act, and we must maximize our  support 
on this issue.  As you all know, last year Senator Tester was not  allowed 
to bring his amendment to the floor in the Senate and we cannot miss  out on 
this opportunity again during this session.  You can be connected  with your 
Senate offices by calling the Capitol switch-board at  202-225-3121.  
Please let me know if you have any questions.  Thank  you all in advance for your 
work on this important matter.  Jesse
