>> Hi all,
>>
>> I’m reaching out to you for a last minute plea to get more signatures on

>> business days left after today to get House Members’ commitments to sign
>> it, we are 24 signers short of last year’s LSTA letter supporters total and
>> this year we fear we will need to double that total! *
>>
>> According to our real-time online tracking tool
>> <https://airtable.com/shruwZPRyL5f2CbQS/tbl3v3Ts6KMDMSyJ1>, many
>> Democrats in your key states (California, Florida, Illinois, Maryland,
>> Massachusetts, New York, Washington) are not yet on the LSTA Dear
>> Appropriator letter. (We are focusing on Democrats in larger states as they
>> have historically provided the bulk of support for LSTA in the past.) *With
>> the window for signatures closing as early as Monday April 3, we need you
>> to reach out again TODAY to those Democrats in your state listed below*
>> who have not yet signed the LSTA Dear Appropriator letter and ask that them
>> to contact staff to Rep. Raul Grijalva (David.Gellman at mail.house.gov) to
>> add their name to the letter NOW.
>>
>> You know how important LSTA is to your state. *We need you to reach out
>> to your people yet again* to generate as many calls, emails and tweets
>> to these offices as humanly possible today, tomorrow and on Monday of next
>> week!
>>
>> *We also need you personally, on behalf of your state associations, to
>> use the phone numbers listed in our online tracker to speak personally with
>> the listed staffer to each of the House Members noted below* to ask
>> directly that their boss sign the LSTA Dear Appropriator letter. Please
>> leave voice mails but *keep calling *until you reach them or they reach
>> you back!
>>
>> We’re almost out of time and failure in this effort may well mean deep
>> cuts in, or even the elimination of, LSTA funding for FY 2018.  We cannot
>> and must not fail.
>>
>> Thanks for again for pushing every way you can and doing it now!
