Dear marilyn,
Your efforts to give our first responders a national day of appreciation is working!
A resolution designating September 25, 2007 as National First Responder Appreciation Day was introduced by Colorado Senator Wayne Allard and has been co-sponsored by several other Senators, including John McCain, Bob Casey and Lindsey Graham.
But this is only the first step. In order to get the resolution to the Senate floor for a vote, we need to make our voices heard! Write a letter to your Senator TODAY urging them to:
- Support the call for a National First Responder Appreciation Day by signing on as a co-sponsor of S.Res.215.
- Urge their colleagues to support the resolution.
- Help bring the resolution to the Senate floor for a vote as soon as possible.
Getting the resolution introduced is an important first step – one we should all be proud of. Now we must convince Congress to act! If we don’t, our first responders might not get the national day of appreciation that they deserve.
Make your voices heard! Send a letter to your Senators TODAY urging them to support National First Responder Appreciation Day!
Sincerely,
Steven Jones
Executive Director
First Response Coalition
Our 1st Responders, such as our brave men and women that are firefighters, police officers, paramedics, etc. put their life on the line everyday to help save other lives! I think they deserve to have a day that recognizes their efforts...don't you? If so, please go and send a letter to get this day passed! Thanks for all your efforts.
God Bless You All,
Love Marilyn |
