[Nfbv-announce] Legislative action needed this week

[Jennifer Kennedy]

Dear Virginia Federationists, 

As I mentioned at the board meeting Saturday, this is the week of action to gain more support for HR 831.  As a reminder:
>  
> Tuesday is Twitter Tuesday
> Wednesday is Call Wednesday and
> Thursday is Email Thursday. 
>  
> The idea is, by tweeting on Tuesday, we will raise awareness about HR 831 to not only our Members of Congress, but also all of our followers on Twitter.u  By calling on Wednesday, we will be putting HR 831 on our Members of Congress’s radar.  Finally, by emailing on Thursday, we will be sealing the deal by making the formal written request to the labor staffers.  I know that if we work together, we will be able to gain even more co-sponsors.



Rose Sloan from the national office has been kind enough to get together all the Twitter handles, phone numbers, and email addresses for the staffers of Congressmen we need to be in contact with. I will forward that message along immediately following this post. Please remember Wittman and Moran are Already co-sponsors. Feel free to thank them during this week of legislative action. Thank you for all your help and I look forward to seeing your tweetss, and hearing about your phone calls.
