  &lt;p style=&quot;LINE-HEIGHT: 150%; mso-margin-top-alt: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto&quot; class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;LINE-HEIGHT: 150%; FONT-FAMILY: ; FONT-SIZE: 10.5pt&quot;&gt;It is vitally important that you contact legislative leaders in the House of Representatives immediately and ask them to please &lt;/span&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;LINE-HEIGHT: 150%; FONT-FAMILY: ; FONT-SIZE: 13.5pt&quot;&gt;NOT&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;LINE-HEIGHT: 150%; FONT-FAMILY: ; FONT-SIZE: 10.5pt&quot;&gt; pass the moratorium bill which will kill wind projects in Connecticut.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description>

  &lt;p&gt;A new website has been developed by the IBEW Second District Office to help in the fight against the increasing number of anti-union legislative proposals submitted each year.&amp;nbsp; Some examples of items that are constantly under attack are prevailing wage laws, licensing laws, and regulations pertaining to apprenticeship ratios.&amp;nbsp; These laws if changed (for the worse), will have a negative&amp;nbsp;impact on &lt;u&gt;&lt;em&gt;all working&amp;nbsp;families&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/u&gt;, whether they are union members or not.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
  &lt;p&gt;We are urging all of our&amp;nbsp;members&amp;nbsp;to sign up for this important website. Please also encourage your spouse, family and friends to sign up!&amp;nbsp; It only takes a minute and you will&amp;nbsp;be contacted when there is an issue that is important not only to the IBEW, but issues that affect&amp;nbsp;all working families.&amp;nbsp; From this site you will be able to email, contact, and forward important information to your state and federal representatives with a few simple clicks of your mouse.&amp;nbsp; Don&#039;t hesitate.&amp;nbsp; Please sign up now!!!&lt;/p&gt;</description>
