>Tiger Team members of www.PostalWatch.org,
>
>In 4 weeks, you have accomplished an astounding feat. From the inception
>of PostalWatch's webpage, through contacts from you, through contacts
>to Congress, to monetary help, through your relentless efforts at making your
>feelings and attitudes known, we are on the verge of overturning the USPS
>regs requiring you to give up your privacy !
>
>This week, House Joint Resolution 55 gets reviewed by the Postal subcommittee
>of the House Government Reform Committee, headed by Dan Burton of Indiana.
>The sub-committee is headed by John McHugh of New York.
>
>Now it's time for phone calls. Normally, calls to House members are
>ill-adivsed
>IF you live outside their districts. However, calls to
>Committees/Sub-Committees
>are Ok because the legislation being decided upon is inclusive of the entire
>nation.
>
>When contacting, PLEASE BE POLITE. We need a positive message conveyed.
>
>Please take the initiative: Call first, then FAX. Personal phone calls
>mean a
>whole lot more in this business.
>
>Stress the obvious:
>
>. Support House Joint Resolution 55
>
>. HJR 55 does not threaten H.R. 22, which "modernizes" the Postal Service.
>
>. Your privacy should not be given up in order for Congress to "modernize" the
> USPS.
>
>Simple ? Not so easy as it seems, but call and express your viewpoint.

>Thanks in advance,
