Immediate Action:Leave a comment if you make the call...
Please call your Congressman and Senators immediately and urge them to vote to override the President's veto and support funding for TBI. In addition to TBI funding, many other critical funds for children, families, caregivers, individuals with disabilities and the aging population are at stake. Congress will be voting tomorrow. The Capitol switchboard number is 202-224-3121. You can ask to be connected to your Senators and Representative.
This alert was prepared by Susan L. Vaughn, Director of Public Policy, on behalf of the NASHIA Public Policy Committee, chaired by Debra Kamen.

President Bush's veto impacts people with disabilities
President Bush's veto of the the Appropriations bill for Labor, Health and Education has an impact right here in Georgia. Please take the time to make the phone call to our Georgia delegation. In the long run, it will make a difference as we move into this election year.
