Men's Health Act Continues to Gain Support

	posted by Scott on Tuesday September 17, @02:53PM from the men's-health dept.
	A recent posting on the Men's Health America list announces that the federal Men's Health Act is gaining more support, with currently 115 co-sponsors in the House. We are encouraged to write to our legislators and ask them to support this bill during this time when they are very eager to get our votes during the election season. The Men's Health Act is a fairly non-controversial men's issue that we should definitely get them to include in their campaigns.

How many sponsors are needed? (Score:1) by equalitarian62 on Tuesday September 17, @08:48PM EST (#1) (User #267 Info) How many sponsors are needed for this bill to pass the House? Steve

Re:How many sponsors are needed? (Score:1) by Scott (scott@mensactivism.org) on Wednesday September 18, @06:54AM EST (#2) (User #3 Info) The number of sponsors is irrelevant. Or rather, it shows how many reps. are willing to go on the record in a high-profile way to support the bill. They will certainly be voting in favor of it. For the bill to pass, only a majority vote in favor is required. I think the fact that this bill has so many co-sponsors is a very good sign, and many other reps. who aren't co-sponsors will probably vote in favor of it, too. Scott
