I wanted to pass along this important message from TASH, a disability

organization  with whom the Autism Society works closely. I hope that you are

able to participate in the National Call-in Day, on Thursday, January 21, and

ask your members of Congress to co-sponsor the Preventing Harmful Restraint and

Seclusion in Schools Act (H.R. 4247/S. 2860).

Thank you,

Jeff Sell

Vice President, Public Policy

Autism Society

Advocate for this bill in

Washington DC. The early

registration fee for the

Re-ACT Summit has

been extended.

In one week, Congress will come back in session. We are asking you to join us in

a National Call-In Day on Thursday, January 21st, to tell your members of

Congress to support the Preventing Harmful Restraint and Seclusion in Schools

Act (H.R. 4247/S. 2860) introduced last month by Representatives

(D-CA) and Mc-Rodgers (R-WA) and Senator Dodd (D-CT). This

legislation would provide students with and without disabilities vital

protections against abuse in schools.

WHAT YOU CAN DO:

Please call this coming Thursday and encourage your friends, networks,

constituents, family and coworkers to participate by dialing the Capitol

switchboard at 202-224-3121 and asking for your Congressional Representative to

co-sponsor H.R. 4247, and your Senators to co-sponsor S. 2860.

* Ask for the offices of your U.S. Senators and Representative

* Ask to speak to the person working on education issues

* Identify yourself as a constituent and the organization that you represent

(if any)

Message: “ I am calling to urge (Senator y) to co-sponsor S. 2860, legislation

preventing  harmful use of restraint and seclusion in schools.â€

Message: “I am calling to urge (Representative z) to co-sponsor H.R. 4247,

legislation preventing harmful use of restraint and seclusion in schools.â€

Thanks for your advocacy. Increasing Congressional support for these bills will

help move them through the legislative process towards enactment. Please call on

January 21, 2010, and tell your friends and family to join you.
