In this issue: LSTA Hearing February 14-Update

This information follows up to the ALAWON sent on February 7, 
2002.  

In that ALAWON, we asked that you call your Congressperson to ask 
him or her to co-sponsor LSTA reauthorization bill.

You should contact your own Congressperson directly and ask him or 
her to co-sponsor the bill.  Their staff will then contact the 
Representatives that are introducing the bill.  Do not call Rich 
Stombres or Maggie McDowell directly to ask that your 
Congressperson sponsor the bill.

Thank you for your help with this important legislation.  Stay 
tuned to ALAWON for further developments.
