My congressman (actually woman) voted no on the stimulus package. I've known her for years so I felt OK being more personal than I normally would. I thought it important to tell her that I LIKED her vote. Info on how to contact your representatives is listed below....
Hi Cathy, I just wanted to drop you a note and give you a great big THANK YOU for trying to stop the madness. Keep voting against more government fraud, waste and abuse. Once the pork barrel (er, uh, sorry, stimulus bill) gets railroaded through I hope you can find a way to insure that the funds go to small businesses with lots and lots of small projects. Anything else will take far too long to actually be helpful. Any applications will also need to be greatly streamlined from normal government requirements. I would be more than happy to help in regards to my industry segment. (Wireless Internet Service Provider) Thanks again for doing the right thing. Sincerely, Marlon K.

I just sent a letter to my two Senators in Indiana. It is important that everyone do this and make sure the Senators understand the importance WISPs have had in rural broadband and how important we are in the future. We can send them a more unified message as the legislative committee gets it refined. I think it is important to get on the radar screen early though. Make an introduction of your company and your locations http://www.senate.gov/general/contact_information/senators_cfm.cfm http://www.house.gov/house/MemberWWW.shtml Respectfully, Rick Harnish -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- _______________________________________________ WISPA Membership Mailing List ----------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- WISPA Wants You!
