Please write to Senator Barbara Mikulski and ask her to reinstate this funding. We have no lobbyists on the hill so we have to be our lobbyists. Tell her how sick you are; that you are not able to contribute to society. Her address is : U.S. Senate Committee on Appropriations, Rm. S146A, The Capitol, Wash., DC, 20510. $5.4M is a drop in the bucket, but it is a drop. Nansy
