Action Alert # 53 – We Have a New House Bill!– HR 1795
We are VERY happy to announce that a bipartisan bill (HR 1795) was introduced in the House last Friday, April 26, to repeal the Government Pension Offset and the Windfall Elimination Provision. It was introduced by Representatives Rodney Davis (R-IL) and Adam Schiff (D-CA). WE THANK THEM! The text of the bill should appear on www.thomas.loc.gov in a few days. You can always check that site to read the bill (search for the bill by number) and to see if your Congressperson has signed on as a co-sponsor. We are expecting a similar bill to be introduced in the Senate very soon.
Urge your Representative to support and co-sponsor the bill to end GPO and WEP, and restore Social Security fairness! This is easy! Go to www.house.gov, find their website and bookmark it. Take a few minutes to call or email them and let them know you are expecting their support. Repeat this process every month.
We need remind them constantly of this problem.
