IMPORTANT NEWS AND INFORMATION

Call to action - Pay the Coast Guard

"Fellow Sons,



It’s a rare occasion when we call upon everybody to take an urgent action, but today we are challenging everybody to do something immediate and simple. Right Now! Friday Afternoon 3/13/26.

We need to pressure the United States Congress to fund the pay of the United States Coast Guard.

The Coast Guard is a service that does so much good for America at so many levels, from performing rescues at sea, in our harbors and off our shores, to maintaining navigable waterways, and Maritime commerce in and out of our country and protecting us from terrorism and illicit drugs and contraband coming in through our ports.

These men and women have to be paid regardless of what’s happening in the politics of Washington DC So I am asking everyone to take 30 seconds and respond to voter voice and send a message to your local Congress people and Senators.

Please do this urgently because it is time sensitive. We need to get the message to Capitol Hill loud and clear take care of the men and women of the Coast Guard who take care of all of us!!

Take Action: Congress Must Pay Our Coast Guard Now votervoice.net

Please just do this immediately and quickly and share with as many as your friends as you can

Thank you in advance, Bill Clancy
