UPDATE! As of noon today 3-14-18, both representatives have signed on to both letters!

 

The deadline for our Congressional Representatives to sign the FY2019 “Dear Appropriator” letters for library and literacy funding is fast approaching. Please use the link ala.org/takeaction to reach out to your representative and ask that she sign both letters. As of Wednesday morning Rep. Kuster has not signed them and Rep. Shea-Porter has not signed both, though her office let me know that she intends to sign them both. You can see the current status at ala.org/fundlibraries.
