Guest guest Posted June 12, 2008 Report Share Posted June 12, 2008 This message is from Moms Against Mercury. We need your help TODAY if you are a North Carolinian. Thanks so much, Sheri B. We need your help immediately!! Senator Purcell, the Chairman of the NC Senate Health Committee will not let our bill be heard in front of his committee. We met with him last Thursday, and he will not budge. This means that HB 431, Phase Out Mercury in Childhood Vaccines, would die. We have worked on this legislation for 3 long years and finally passed the House last June with a 100 to 7 vote. We cannot let this happen! This is how you can help: We are asking everyone to join us for a " call-in " and email campaign to get our bill heard. We need each of you to call Senator Tony Rand tomorrow morning, Thursday, June 12th, starting at 9:15am and ask that the bill get reassigned to another committee. This is what needs to be said: Ask to speak to Senator Tony Rand. When they tell you he is not available and would you like to leave a message say " yes " . Tell them that since Senator Purcell will not hear HB 431 in the Health Committee, you would like Senator Rand to reassign it to the Appropriations Committee or sent to the Senate floor for vote. We would like you to also email this request to Senator Rand and copy your State Senator on the email. If you do not know who your State Senator is you can find it by going to the following link: http://ncleg.net/GIS/Representation/Who_Represents_Me/Who_Represents_Me.html Senator Tony Rand's email address is: Tonyr@... Senator Rand's telephone number is: 919-733-9892 We ask that when you call you do it in a very polite manner. This will be so helpful in the long run. Many people will be calling in, so please be patient and keep trying if you get a busy signal. We really, really, need your help. In honor of our injured children, please help us stop mercury containing vaccines from being injected into NC babies and pregnant women. Now is the time we North Carolinians force our legislators to do what is in the best interest of the public not their pocketbooks. Many sincere thanks in advance. We can't do this without you and we are so appreciative. Amy Carson and Medlin www.shaklee.net/simplevitality Creating healthier lives for over 52 years Sharing Shaklee for the health of it!

Guest guest Posted June 12, 2008 Report Share Posted June 12, 2008 I emailed Senator Rand and copied the Senator in my district. I will keep my fingers crossed. - > > This message is from Moms Against Mercury. We need your help TODAY if you are a North Carolinian. Thanks so much, > Sheri B.
