MESSAGE FROM THE NORPAC MISSION LEADERSHIP

The NORPAC leadership wants you to know that we

have already seen tangible results from the recent

mission. Your participation matters! Here is a

summary of the exciting developments:

1. The Hezbollah International Financial Prevention

Act had 24 cosponsors prior to the NORPAC Mission.

Now there are over 100 cosponsors for the House bill.

2. Sen. Marco Rubio (R- Fla.) agreed to co-introduce

similar Hezbollah legislation in the Senate.

3. On the Mission day we added a 60th Senate

cosponsor (John Walsh D-MT) onto the Menendez-Kirk

Iran Sanctions Bill- a Herculean feat given the

President's pressure to delay that bill.

4. Rep. Alan Grayson (D- Fla.) prepared legislation to

cut off funding for higher education institutions which

support BDS (Boycott Divestment Sanctions) of Israel.
