Letter of the Week - Down Syndrome Stamp
01/23/08Every week, 2,000 - 3,000 Second District residents write to me about the issues pending before Congress, and I work hard to respond to each person as promptly and thoughtfully as possible. On this "Letter of the Week" blog, I highlight constituent letters that are of general interest. If you'd like to share your own views, please feel free to e-mail me at any time!
Dear Nancy,
I am writing to let you know that I support Congressman Sessions' and
Congressman Langevin's Bill H. Con. Res. 247 which directs the USPS to
create a Down Syndrome Awareness Postage Stamp. I am asking you as my
representative to PLEASE sign on as a cosponsor to HCONRES247. This
bill will be a step in bringing about positive awareness of
individuals with Down syndrome.
Sincerely,
Bob
Dear Bob,
Thank you for contacting me about H. Con. Res. 28, a resolution expressing the support of Congress for a commemorative postage stamp to promote public awareness of Down syndrome.
I hope you will be pleased to know that I am a co-sponsor of this legislation. If passed, I believe this legislation would be a solid first step to increasing the public understanding of Down syndrome and support for research.
Thank you again for contacting me. I am pleased to co-sponsor this legislation and will follow its progress closely. Please don’t hesitate to be in touch if there is any way I can be of assistance in the future.
Sincerely,
Nancy Boyda
Member of Congress
