Resolution gains majority
The Amateur Radio Service Joint Resolution, H. J. Res. 199, now has
a majority of the US House of Representatives as cosponsors. On
April 11, four additions to the list of cosponsors brought the total
to 220, (of which three are non voting delegates).
The four are: Rep. James Talent (R-MO), Del. Eleanor Holmes Norton
(D-DC), Rep. Thomas Ridge (R-PA), and Rep. Don Young (R-AK).
The Resolution seeks formal recognition of the value of Amateur
Radio to the country, would support Amateur Radio as ''national
policy,'' and would encourage rules and regulations to facilitate
Amateur Radio as a public benefit by encouraging new technologies.
Including Resolution sponsor Jim Cooper (D-TN), the total number of
voting sponsors is now 218. There are currently 434 Representatives
in the House.
More on the Resolution and the League's efforts in Washington were
in April QST, pages 47 to 50.
