Re: Proposed Legislation
S.RES.155
SPONSOR: Sen. Lott (introduced 11/10/97)
Don,
I am sending this note along to you, and think it would be benificial to
post to the "Chesnut-L".
We, as Irish could say what is good for the Scot's seem's would be
benificial to our heritage as well.
Sue received this note/report from her Kincaid family moderator, which was
received from the Clan secretary William Kincaid, about pending "Tartan Day"
legislation, which as I understand would make April 6th, each year National
Tartan Day in honor of the Scotish.
Regards,
Dan Chesnut,
Subj: URGENT!!! TARTAN DAY INFORMATION MEMO
The following message was received by William Kincaid, Clan Kincaid
and passed on to me.
Dear Clan Kincaid Members, Fellow Scots and Friends,
PLEASE, PLEASE GET ON THE TELEPHONE
IMMEDIATELY AND CONTACT YOUR STATE SENATOR(S) TO OBTAIN HIS/HER COMMITMENT TO
CO-SPONSOR SENATE RESOLUTION 155 WHICH WOULD DESIGNATE APRIL 6TH AS NATIONAL
TARTAN DAY. Contact your local Scottish associations, clan associations, pipe
bands, dance groups, relatives and friends to also make that important
telephone call. We do not have a lot of time and a few well placed phone
calls will not take up a lot of your time.
Let's get as many people as possible to contact their Senator(s) regarding
the Tartan Day legislation. We can all work together to get this done!
Thanks for your help.
