Get Involved Locally TODAY!
People often ask how our group has been involved locally. I believe that one of the BEST ways to help is to start participating on a government level. We had a small group of women travel to meet with their state's representatives last year, and it has PAID OFF! They shared their stories, their hearts, and their passions and helped convince people that the following bill was WORTH supporting. Many thanks to the women from EWOP that took the time to share their passion!
YOU CAN STILL HELP!! Please take this chance to GET INVOLVED!
Please take a second to read the email below and call your SENATOR!
THIS MONDAY, September 20th is the Child Protection Compact Act National Call-in Day, so please mark it on your calendar to call your Senators to ask them to vote YES on the CPCA once it reaches the floor!
Visit the call-in day site for a sample script and video to make this call super easy: http://www.ijm.org/nationalcallinday. Simply read from the sample script and let your voice be heard. (It's not hard and they won't ask you a ton of questions.) :) It IS making a difference!
Dear Friends,
I’m writing with an exciting update! Next Tuesday, September 21, the Senate Foreign Relations Committee (SFRC) is scheduled to “mark-up” the Child Protection Compact Act! [Check it out! http://foreign.senate.gov/hearings/hearing/?id=d6d099c6-5056-a032-524a-7a0dc2d7f130 You can watch the hearing live at 2:15 EST at: http://foreign.senate.gov/hearings/hearing/?id=d6d099c6-5056-a032-524a-7a0dc2d7f130.] This is the Committee’s chance to make amendments to the bill and pass it out of committee. Once the CPCA is passed out of the SFRC, it can go to the Senate floor for a vote.
This is very exciting! And it would not have happened without all of your work to make this issue a priority for your Representatives and Senators. More than 1,000 of you have attended meetings with Congressional offices, and we can’t thank you enough—for all the lobby meetings, the calls you’ve made, and the postcards you’ve collected. Your efforts are making a difference!
But we’re not done yet! Here’s what still needs to happen: The SFRC needs to pass the bill out of committee on 9/21 so the full Senate can vote on it.

On the House side, one of two things needs to happen. The House can either pass their version of the CPCA out of the House Foreign Affairs Committee (HFAC)so the full House can vote on the bill, OR once the CPCA passes in the Senate, the House can choose to take up the Senate version of the bill and simply vote on that one instead. The latter option is certainly the easier and faster option, especially with the Senate moving quickly on the bill. The next HFAC hearing is scheduled for September 30, but the CPCA is not yet officially on the agenda. Things are moving quickly, so we’ll keep you updated on the House process and any other important developments.
Thank you again for all of your hard work and support!!
Gratefully,
Eileen
