        For those who want to help, when you go there, you will see a black box on the right side of the page, about 1/2 way down the page. It has a pic of Congress on it and white letters with the words "TAKE ACTION NOW". Click on that box, and it takes you there.

        I agree that this is a very important cause. Thank you for bringing this to our attention so we can help too!

        Hugs,
        Amy
