Take Action

Congresswoman Lois Capps (D-CA) and Congressman Lee Terry (R-NE) have introduced H.R.868, the Direct Support Professionals Fairness and Security Act of 2009. Like previous legislation considered during the last Congress, H.R.868 helps address the workforce crisis by giving states a much-needed option to secure additional federal dollars for the direct support workforce.

Now that the wage bill has been re-introduced, we need to get members of the House of Representatives to demonstrate their support by co-sponsoring the bill. To do this, ANCOR needs you to write your Representative and urge his or her support of H.R.868.
