Well, I'd hold off sending him tons of thank you notes just yet! It might be better to wait until he introduces the Bill - that's when we need to get positive e-mails and letters up to Albany. At that time, I'll provide contact information for the appropriate people. Once it's read in the Assembly, the Bill will go to a Committee, it's those Committee Members who will need to be bombarded with positive responses, so they get it out of Committee asap and into the full Assembly to be voted on. So just be patient...we'll need the letters later, just not yet! Peggy mgolant@xxxxxxxxxxxxx wrote: >That's wonderful !!
