[APCO Alert - Breaking News that Impacts Public Safety Communication]
Dear Public Safety Professional:
Good morning. I am Bill Carrow, President of APCO International, and once again on behalf of the Public Safety Alliance, I need your help today and tomorrow. The Republican leadership of the United States House of Representatives needs to hear from you now, as well as your family, friends, neighbors and colleagues.
During the next couple of days public safety officials will be in Washington DC meeting the members of congress to get them to introduce a companion bill to S. 911: The Public Safety Spectrum and Wireless Innovation Act of 2011 and we need your help. S. 911 passed out of committee on an overwhelmingly bipartisan vote and now the House needs to pass a similar bill on a bipartisan basis. We need your help in calling key leaders in the house during this time to support those that are in Washington DC. I know we have asked a lot, but this very complex process needs your support. Our success would not have happened without your phone calls and other help, so please take a moment to make this important call.
The House leaders need to do the right thing. This is no time to be a penny-wise and a pound-foolish with our nation's safety and security, especially in these tough economic times. We need Majority Whip Kevin McCarthy (CA) to come out in support of S.911 and its companion to allocate D block spectrum to public safety with funding of $11.5 billion for the nationwide, interoperable and mission-critical public safety broadband network.
Therefore, please call Majority Whip Kevin McCarthy today at 202.225.2915 and urge him to support S. 911 and its companion in the House now before the 10th anniversary. Thank you once again for your continued support and assistance on this time-sensitive and top priority matter.
Sincerely, [http://images.magnetmail.net/images/clients/APCO/Bill%20Sig.jpg] Bill Carrow
