Dear ARRL member,
I am writing to you today because we are nearing the end of the 114^th
Congress and the efforts to obtain passage of /The Amateur Radio Parity
Act /are at a critical juncture. With a few short weeks left to the
year, we must get this bill passed *_NOW_* or we will need to start all
over again come January 1, 2017.
As you know, thanks to your previous efforts, the legislative efforts
scored a major victory in our campaign when /the Amateur Radio Parity
Act/, H.R. 1301, passed in the House of Representatives on September
12^th . The legislation is now in the Senate in two forms – as H.R. 1301
and alternately in the packaged bill S. 253. We still need every Senator
to approve the bill.
You are one of over 730,000 licensed Amateur Radio Operators living in
the United States.Many of you already live in deed-restricted
communities, and that number grows daily.
We asked you for your help in September - and you responded in great
numbers.We collected over 63,000 emails that were distributed to every
single U.S. Senator.That is amazing. However, with the election hiatus
over, each and every Senator must be reminded that their business is not
complete until this important legislation affecting hams is passed and
sent to the President*.*
*Even if you wrote in the past, we need you to write again!*
ONCE AGAIN I REMIND YOU THAT NOW IS THE TIME FOR ALL HAMS TO GET
INVOLVED IN THE PROCESS!
* If you want to have effective outdoor antennas but are not currently
allowed to do so by your Home Owner’s Association, PLEASE SEND THESE
EMAILS TODAY!
* If you don’t live in a deed-restricted community but you care about
the future of Amateur Radio, please support your avocation and your
fellow hams and SEND THESE EMAILS TODAY!
We need you to reach out one more time to your Senators TODAY!*Right
away Right now!*
Help us in the effort.Please go to this linked website and follow the
prompts:
