Anyone can be an Advocate!


I don't know how many people read this everyday, but if you happen to see this on Wednesday April 25, 2012 we could really use your help!

Please help me contact our Members of Congress to ask that they support the ABLE Act and vote it out of Congress. This bill will allow me to save tax-free for the future needs of Jack in the same way parents save for college. It takes 5 minutes and will help our family. Write DONE so I can thank you!

The ABLE Act, (http://www.kintera.org/TR.asp?a=clLVJiNULkJ2LeO6F&s=fkLYLjPVJgLSK9PTIuF&m=8fKLK2OELeLKK6K) introduced with strong bi-partisan support, would amend Section 529 of the Internal Revenue Service Code to allow individuals with disabilities and their families to deposit earnings to tax-exempt savings accounts. The funds could be used to pay for qualified expenses, including education, housing and transportation, and would supplement, not replace, benefits provided through private insurance, employment or public programs.
