Calling your State Reps

Governor Patrick's opponents for election this fall have both promised to veto it, and his re-election is uncertain, so this may be our last chance to pass this bill for years.

We have until May 7 [possibly now extended until May 18, depending on a Senate vote on the extension] to get our bill out of Committee, for House and Senate votes.

That will only happen if House & Senate leadership make it happen.
