[PPRAANet] Final Push for the Amateur Radio Parity Act in this Congress

[Dennis Major]

Hey, why not give the reflector a really good workout?!

After you go to the website listed, and take the five minutes to fill 
out the form, and submit it, simply "Reply List" or "Reply ALL" (and 
remove the sender's email) and send a short note to the effect "I DID 
IT". That should encourage all others on the reflector to do the same.

I DID IT !!!

P.S. It really only took a few minutes, and it was painless.

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.

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.

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.
