Maryland--Calls Needed for Fair Access to Special Services
Dear HSLDA members and friends,
Please continue calling members of the Senate Education, Health and Environmental Affairs committee! The hearing will be tomorrow at 1 p.m. regardless of the weather.
We expect the committee to address S.B. 116 right at 1 p.m. I plan to be present to testify. If you would like to testify in support of the bill, you need to put your name on the list outside the committee hearing room by 12:30. If you wish, Jennifer Levy will put your name on the list for you. You can contact her at jlevy@senate.state.md.us
The hearing will take place in the Miller Senate Office Building, 11 Bladen St., Annapolis, Maryland, in the 2nd Floor West room.
ACTION REQUESTED:
1. Please call the members of the Senate Education, Health, and Environmental Affairs committee immediately. Your message can be as simple as, "Please vote in favor of S.B. 116. It will give homeschool students fair access to special education services they need, like homeschool students in many other states already do."
Your call will be especially effective if you live in the district of the committee member you call. Use our legislative toolbox at http://www.hslda.org/toolbox before calling to see who your senator is, then check the list below to see if he's on the committee.
2. Come to the hearing on Wednesday and testify in support of the bill. Your testimony will be especially helpful if you have a special needs child this bill would benefit. If you think you may testify, please call Jennifer Levy, Sen. Brochin's aide, at 410-841-3648 in advance.

An interesting phenomenon of wind is that it can blow in multiple directions at the same time, at different heights from the ground. But usually there is a prevailing wind. HSLDA watches the gusts and monitors the prevailing trends of change in the legal climate of home education. So no matter which way the wind is blowing, we're there to protect your family.
