Then you destroy yourself" ----- Original Message ----- From: Christopher Reeve Action Network To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, September 07, 2004 6:46 AM Subject: Action Alert: September is Our Month Congress is scheduled to adjourn October 1st. We have the month of September to pass the Christopher Reeve Paralysis Act (CRPA). We have only 18 days until Christopher Reeve�s birthday on September 25th. Please join our campaign to push Congress to pass the CRPA for Christopher�s birthday�six short days before Congress is scheduled to leave for the year. We need everyone�s help to cross the finish line. We have signed letters of support from the Secretary of Health and Human Services, Tommy Thompson and Secretary of the Veterans� Administration, Anthony Principi; and statement of support from the Director of the National Institutes of Health, Elias Zerhouni. This support is unprecedented. It is just one facet of this bill that makes it unique and an easy vote in Congress. We just need to get the bill brought up for consideration. What you can do: Send a letter to your Members of Congress. We drafted a new letter. If you already sent a letter, send another by clicking here. Call your Members of Congress. You can find phone numbers by clicking here. Encourage your friends and family members to reach out to their Members of Congress. Set up meetings with your Members of Congress while they are home on Mondays or Fridays. We cannot let Congress adjourn without consideration of this legislation � legislation that is completely non-controversial and long overdue to enhance research, rehabilitation, and quality of life programs for people living with paralysis! Over two million of us living with paralysis are expecting results, and together we can deliver. We have a very small window of opportunity. It will take all of us working together to pass the Christopher Reeve Paralysis Act. We Must. We Can. We Will. 500 Morris Ave � Springfield, NJ 07081 (800) 225-0292           Questions?
