Justme1949 Posted February 1, 2009 Share Posted February 1, 2009 Just wanted to update..I'm still sending out my e-mails and I have gotten four responses so far which are all positive!! yippee! B) One of the e-mail responses was from Rep.Constance Howard who said "please tell Rep.Ron Stephens I will co-sponsor" Not sure how I was suppose to do that,so I decided to foward the e-mail I wrote and her response to me to Rep Stephens....hope that works!

samalw Posted February 2, 2009 Share Posted February 2, 2009 FYI, Here are a couple of lists of interest. Only *Verschoore* (so far) was a sponsor of HB4201 and is a sponsor of *HB0273*. It just shows it's a whole new ballgame with this new bill. I've gotten no replies from anyone on the nay list whatsoever. Nay on HB4201 Cole Currie Eddy Fortner Fritchey Mautino Meyer Miller Osmond Pihos Riley Yarbrough Sponsor of HB4201 Sommer *Verschoore* Beiser Phelps Reitz Washington Jefferies Boland McGuire Ford Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
