[K3PZN-List] Amateur Radio Antenna State Legislation Pending

[Pat Kilroy]

HERE ARE THE BILLS pending in Annapolis
that Phil mentioned at the club meeting
last night ...

When you contact your local legislators you
must tell him or her the bill number (shown
below) that you want them to support.  You
may even ask them to please co-sponsor the
bill if they are not already doing so (as
in the case of Delegate Stull and Delegate
Shewell).

The highlighted link leads you to more info
on each of the two bills.

Cheers,
