Our Legislation on the Radio!

This from Nadine Gratz in Sen. Robson's office:

At 6 am tomorrow morning (Thursday, May 31), Sen. Robson will be the special guest on Wisconsin Public Radio talking about the autism bill. She will be on Joy Cardin's show on the statewide "Ideas Network". Judy will be on from 6-6:30 am. In the 6:30-7 time slot, Joy may have someone representing the insurance companies that oppose the bill as an insurance mandate. It would be great if you could get the word out to your members to listen and possible call in with their personal stories and experiences. It would be helpful to have callers supporting Judy and the bill, but it is even more important to have the insurance industry challenged by real people with real needs.

Hope you can get the word out. Of course, we'll spread the word to other groups, organizations and legislators too. Thanks again.


Also:

Rob Ferrett of Wisconsin News Connection called me to do an interview. This is kind of a radio-news wire that will air interviews on 20-40 stations, so it seems as if
we'll get some coverage from them for the rally. He interviewed me for
about 5 mins. and will edit it into 20-30 second sound bites to be
played on radio stations throughout the state. I really focused on the
terrible time families have waiting for treatment and the unfairness
aspect of not treating autism.

If anyone hears this on a radio broadcast, please let me know.
