For every one not to caught up in using the disAbility Rat stickers
(Ron, post that address again, PLEASE) How about we all do something
positive on behalf of each of us and the ADA. Drop a short note to
Redge Westbrook
ADA Action Network
Box 4709
Austin, TX 78765
Ask Redge to send you at least 4 of the postcards urging passage of the
ADA. Take the few moments and send them to your own Congressman, The
Speaker of the House Thomas Foley, the Minority Leader of the House,
Robert Micel and to Congressman Pete Gerens of Texas of Transportation
or Congressman Jack Brooks , theres room for a short comment about why
we need the ADA. Be sure and sign your name. If you can call your
Congressmans office now while they are home. Obtain the names of your
Representative and let them know you don't want the access provisions
weakened even one iota! This ADA bill is the equivilent of the Civil
Rights Act of 1964 was to our black brothers! We must join together
NOW!

I don't have the D.R. stickers, because there's too much of a chance of
making a mistake and getting your lights punched out. I have some
goldenrod ticket-like notices that educate the transgressor, courtesy
of the Mass. MS Society. They are about 3 inches by 4 inches and have
the international HP parking symbol on them. They say:
YOU ARE PARKED IN A RESERVED SPACE
This parking space is provided for physically disabled people who have
a handicapped license plate or placard. If you are not disabled,
please don't deny handicapped parking access to those who need it.
A bit kindler and gentler than the Rat stickers.
Leave your address here or write me at P.O. Box 212, Waverly, MA 02179
