Senate Passes the Comprehensive Iran Sanctions, Accountability and Divestment Act of 2009 – Please thank your Senator.

Due to your efforts, the Senate passed the Comprehensive Iran Sanctions, Accountability and Divestment Act of 2009 (S. 2799) by unanimous consent on Thursday night, January 28. The legislation, which contains the major components of both the Iran Refined Petroleum Sanctions Act (IRPSA) and the Iran Sanctions Enabling Act (ISEA), seeks to reinforce American diplomacy by dramatically increasing economic pressure on Iran. Now that the Senate has acted, House and Senate members will meet to reconcile the Senate bill with the House-passed Iran Refined Petroleum Sanctions Act (IRPSA). After their work is completed, the reconciled legislation will go back to the House and Senate for a vote on final passage before it is sent to the President for his signature.

Please remember to send a thank you letter to your senator.

CRC Launches New Action Alert Technology

To make it easier — and faster — for UJC of MetroWest members to take action on priority legislative matters, the CRC has launched a new action alert capability which allows you to send an advocacy letter directly to your Congressmen from your own computer with a click of the mouse. The action alerts will be sent to every donor on issues of only the highest importance to UJC. Look out for CRC Action Alerts in your inbox. We encourage you to open them and take action!
