Most Important People To Contact in Congress


It is particularly important that we have strong support on the 
two Committees where the legislation will originate - 

Two great ways you can help pass the bill:

* Ask the two Committee Chairs to schedule a vote on the "Kate Puzey Peace Corps Volunteer Protection Act" as soon as possible

* Contact Committee Members who are not cosponsors and ask for their support
