Continuing to Attract Co-Sponsors

HFAMA volunteers Anne Fish, Hilary Garivaltis, Kim Povey and Clark Reddick flank Rep. Sean Garballey in January 2019.

Our Senate bill continues to attract new co-sponsors (House rules limit the co-sponsorship period of House bills to one week which closed in April).  Rep. Michael Soter signed on as a co-sponsor of the bill as we prepped for our Rally Day on April 11.  As activists for the bill made the rounds of the State House and met with their legislators, Rep. Patrick O’Connor was also persuaded to add his name as a co-sponsor.  But it was Rep. Sean Garballey who got the ball rolling in the early days of our bill when he became an endorser of the bill in January.
