Donna, Just curious, why is it that the ACC received word of this a few days ago but has not yet alerted the membership? And would the ACC have told us before January had I not brought it up? Some of us try to do more than just contacting representatives during the session. It would be very helpful to have the bill so we can go over talking points with those we meet everyday. If we can get them on board early it will make our jobs easier come January. I tried to call Senator Marsh's office but his assistant is out until Monday. Please send the bill so those of us who would like to be proactive before January have the opportunity to do so.

The ACC Board was notified of the prefiling of Senator Marsh's proposed statewide MSN bill a few days ago. We have a copy and are analyzing it and working on a plan to stop it from going forward. We have a little planning time as the legislative session will not begin until the first of January 2010. Please be assured that we are staying on this issue. As we have news to report, we will. I am sure at some point we will need everyone's phone calls, emails and letters. We are not to that point yet, so please stand by. Donna In a message dated 9/17/2009 4:03:43 P.M.

They are VERY organized and have provided a lot more information. The State of Alabama really needs to get it in gear if they want to stop MSN in 2010 (hey, that rhymes!). I have heard (but not yet confirmed) that Senator Del Marsh plans to file this as a statewide bill (again). His original bill was for Calhoun County only. My rep's assistant was not able to find a prefiled bill in the system, however if it was very recently filed it might not show up yet.
