Great news! According to “THOMAS Library of Congress”, Representative Steve Scalise finally co-sponsored H.R. 1207.

Steve Scalise Cosponsors H.R. 1207 on 5/20/2009

Thanks to all who signed the petition.  We know there were not thousands of signatures, but we know that each of you who signed the petition share our concern about the financial health of our country.  And here is an entertaining coincidence: Representative Scalise just happened to cosponsor the resolution on the day that your petition was delivered to him!  Steve, we’ll give you both the benefit of the doubt and kudos for great timing!

H.R. 1207 Now Cosponsored by 40% of the House

As I write, 175 out of 435 Representatives now cosponsor this landmark legislation, including 30 Democrats.  This is just the start of our pressure.  We need to make sure this gets through the house and that the Senate hears our voices.
