Any testimony you want to send needs to be sent now! The hearing will be
next Tuesday. Let the Senate Finance Committee know why you support the
Community Choice Act (S. 799)
Voice of the Retarded is sending lots of pro-institution letters and
testimony and the Committe needs to hear from CCA Supporters too.
Though only invited people can testify orally to the committee, anyone
can submit written testimony. If people want to send written testimony to
the committee, here is the address:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
If you write it will probably not get there in time, but the mailing address
is:
Committee On Finance
219 Dirksen Senate Office Building
Washington, DC 20510-6200
If you do send written testimony, we would appreciate your sending ADAPT a
copy so we can use it -- if needed -- in the future. (It's hard to get
ahold of this kind of written testimony later.) You can email it to
[EMAIL PROTECTED] or send a hard copy
to: ADAPT of TX 1640-A East 2nd ST, Suite 100 Austin, TX 78702 (note NEW
ADDRESS) or fax to: 512/442-0522.
