Action Alert: National Call-In Days for the CRPD: November 4 & 11

CRPD Sticker: Ratify CRPD Yes!We need your help. The opposition is flooding Senate offices with calls against the treaty. They need to hear from our Movement now or we will not succeed.

Senators Menendez and Corker and our target senators on the Foreign Relations Committee need to hear from you that you support the CRPD!

We need you to call on November 4th and 11th so we can show the Foreign Relations Committee that the community is behind this treaty!

Visit the new citizen action portal at disabilitytreaty.org to find information on how to contact the target Senators on the Foreign Relations Committee by phone.
