It appears that the Bill will come up in committee for a vote next week.
Both of our Florida Senators are on the committee and we need to have as
many emails or phone calls made to them requesting their support for the
Bill as possible.
Please contact Senator Nelson and Senator Rubio today by telephone or
e-mail with the following simple message:
"I'm a constituent and an amateur radio operator. I am writing to urge
the Senator to support S. 1685, the Amateur Radio Parity Act, when it
comes up for a vote in committee on November 18th. Thank you."
