URGENT—Action Needed!! Contact your Senators and Representatives TODAY urging them to maintain the House-passed level of funding for prevention and wellness programs, as well as funding for school infrastructure improvements in the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act. Find more information and sample letters here:

Visit the NASPE Government Relations page (http://member.aahperd.org/advocacy/) to learn who your Representatives and Senators are- click on "Elected Officials". In particular, the House and Senate conferees working to reconcile the two bills need to hear from physical educators: Senators Inouye, Baucus, Reid, Cochran, and Grassley; Representatives Waxman, Obey, Rangel, Lewis and Camp. |
