Get you representative's phone number by going to this web site and typing in your zip code. Call his or her office in DC. Tell the staff member that answers the phone that you are a constitutent, that you are a returned volunteer, and that you are asking your representative to become a co-sponsor of House Bill HR 3709 and why.

To date eight members of congress have signed on as co-sponsors.
