Dear Friends,

Occasionally I send an e mail to a wide distribution - I try to keep
such traffic to a minimum, to those matters that are of key importance.
This is such an e mail. Last month the US House of Representatives
passed the HR 1170, the Child Medication Safety Act (425-1) mandating
that schools cannot coerce parents into putting their child on a
psychotropic drug as a condition of being in school.
O.K. - Another one to write your Congress on. Read below:



Last week the Senate introduced the companion bill - SB 1390 (below).

It is critical that each and every one of us contact our Senators
(regardless of the state you live in, you have two) and urge them to
support and co sponsor SB 1390 introduced by Senators Ensign and Alexander.

This is historic legislation folks. The federal government is
weighing in on the issue of parents being coerced into putting their
children on mind altering drugs. Do your part. Contact your Senators NOW
and get them to support this bill.

The best way is to call. The second best way is to fax. You can also
e mail, but it does not have the same impact as the first two.

I have pasted a link to the Congressional website just below. Once
there, click the link on top for Senators and find your Senators contact
numbers and call or fax. You want to talk to the Education Policy Aide
if they have one or the Legislative Aide. The bottom line is that 1- You
are a constituent and 2- you want your Senator to support and cosponsor
this legislation.

This is something that will really make a difference in the lives of
future generations. Act now.

Also, many of you have friends, clients other contacts, big e mail
lists ----Please get this out far and wide. Children are our future.

Best,

Bruce
