H.R. 218 Co-Sponsors In The 106th Congress

Your phone calls, letters, and emails have really paid off. LEAA is proud to announce that 168 is the most cosponsors to ever sign onto LEAA’s flagship legislation, H.R. 218! The 106th Congress has proven to be a successful one in a variety of ways and LEAA looks forward to more success in the 107th Congress, as we win additional support for this life-saving legislation. With the continued support from all our members, LEAA is confident that next year will be even better. Remember, not only is it important for you to go vote on Nov. 7th, but be sure your friends and family also head to the ballot box that day. Supporting the lawmakers who support us (and worthy legislation like H.R. 218) is the only way we can get it passed and signed next year by a newly elected president — George W. Bush.

The 168 congressmen and women who have stepped up to the plate to cosponsors H.R. 218 are listed below by state. If your U.S. Representative is not on this list, and is up for reelection, get to work on him or her now and look for them on the campaign trail to urge their support for the “Community Protection Act.”
