Write letters and call Senator Coats's office. Use the toll free number. 800-962-3524. That's the Capitol switchboard. Asked for Senator Coats. ---------- > From: JON A MEYER <[log in to unmask]> > Subject: Udall Bill : Sen.

I just spoke with Lupe McCann from New York. She was estatic. Senator D'Amato has agreed to cosponsor. It took her and many others from New York 3.5 years to get him on board. I encourage you to arrange to see Senator Coats personally when Congress is in recess the last week of March and the first week of April. Ask him how he can possibly not support this legislation having first hand witnessed the suffering of Parkinson's. But by all means keep up the pressure. > Unfortunately he doesn't say he will be a cosponsor. I plan a follow up > letter to him. > > > Jon Meyer 40/1 ([log in to unmask]) > another Hoosier
