Thank you ...

... for everyone's input this week to figure out what is going on in Washington. Parents have been so left out of the loop in the past, it is difficult to figure out what is really happening. Thanks to the input of all of you and putting our heads together, the information pieces are easier to pull together and make more sense.

From what we have been hearing this week (from all of you who have written or have forwarded credible information to us), it seems that the reason that the bill was not released by yesterday was because more is being considered and done with it. Parents are hoping that it means that the Senate is giving students with disabailities more consideration than the House did in H.R.1350.

So, we march onward and proudly keep writing our letters, making phone calls, and scheduling face to face contact. Remember to see if you can make it to one of the upcoming rallies listed on this Web site.

Get your children, their grandparents, therapists, doctors, employers, employees, labor union buddies, Chamber of Commerce friends, babysitters, and everyone else that you can think of to send messages similar to yours to your Senators and other elected officials. The more voices that echo our messages, the better.

We will be posting more resources soon and are sorting through everything that we have received this week. Thank you for your contributions.

As always, we look forward to hearing from you.
