As announced last week, our House champions have invited their colleagues to join as “original” cosponsors.
An original cosponsor means that a member of Congress’ name is on a bill at the time it is reintroduced, and indicates that he or she feels it is particularly important.
You can help us garner as many original cosponsors as possible by calling your Representative’s office using the number and call script here.
The deadline for Representatives to join as original cosponsors is March 22nd, so please make your call as soon as possible, because it will take some time for each member to decide.
Offices typically answer calls from 9am-6pm EST and some have after hours voice mail. Thank you for your advocacy!
