[Forwarding from Heather Joseph. --Peter Suber.]
Delighted to let you all know that fresh on the heels of yesterday?s well-attended Congressional briefing on public access, 24 new bipartisan co-sponsors have officially been added to the roster of supporters for FRPAA! The list reflects the incredibly broad - and growing! - nature of the support for the bill. Thanks to all of you who have already been in touch with your Representatives' office and asked them to co-sponsor; for those of you have not, let's keep this list growing....you can use the letters set up for this purpose at the Alliance for Taxpayer Access action center, at: http://www.taxpayeraccess.org/action/FRPAA2012.shtml The new co-sponsors join the bill?s original sponsors, Rep. Mike Doyle (D-PA), Rep. Lacy Clay (D-MO) and Rep. Kevin Yoder (R-KS). The full list is below.
