Senate Dear Colleague Letter Needs Support!

Thank you for helping build support for our Dear Colleague letter among members of the House of Representatives. Because of the thousands of people from across the country who wrote about the importance of reinstating RIF’s funding, the message was clearly heard by the Representatives.

But we still need your help! A separate Dear Colleague letter begins circulating in the Senate today. We have limited time to build support and let Congress know that without federal funding, more than 4.4 million children and families will not receive free books or reading encouragement from RIF programs.

Remember, your voice is the most important resource we have to make sure Congress reinstates RIF’s funding. Please send a message to your Senators today. Just enter your zip code to send a template statement directly. It only takes a couple of minutes to help make a lasting impact.

Please forward this message to your friends and colleagues and encourage them to send a message as well. Post this information on Facebook, Twitter, blogs, or any other social networks you use.
