Take Action

If you sent comments on ESEA and NCLI to the House Ed and Labor Committee this winter—thank you! Now it’s time to get our message out to the Senate!

The Senate House, Education, Labor, and Pension Committee (HELP) is asking stakeholders to submit comments on the Elementary and Secondary Education Act by May 7, 2010. Please take a few moments today to email the HELP Committee at ESEAcomments@help.senate.gov and let them know that you support the inclusion of the No Child Left Inside Act (S.866) in the reauthorized ESEA.

Some tips for submitting your comments:

  • Send your comments in the format of a letter on organizational letterhead.
  • Personalize your comments with information about your organization—size and type, interest in environmental education, specific progress in your state/region.
  • Send a copy of your comments to Sarah Bodor at sbodor@cbf.org so that we can follow-up on your comments in subsequent meetings with Committee staff and other members of Congress.

Remember, comments should be emailed to ESEAcomments@help.senate.gov by May 7, 2010.
