Greetings:

We are thrilled to announce that Senator Patty Murray (D-WA), a

stalwart supporter of 2-1-1 in her home state of Washington and

nationwide, has agreed to serve as the new lead Senate sponsor

of the Calling for 2-1-1 Act (S. 211). We would like to thank

the United Ways of Washington, WIN 211, and each local United

   Way in Washington State who contacted Senator Murray to request

that she serve as the lead sponsor. We could not have found a

greater champion for our top policy priority.

   Regards,

   Patrick Jackson
