What to Say: Talking Points

You are a resident of Nevada who cares about ending the genocide in Sudan. Respectfully ask the Nevada legislators to support targeted Sudan divestment legislation. It is important that Nevada divest from foreign companies that contribute to the genocide in Darfur where over 400,000 have died and 2.5 million have been displaced since 2003.

Is there a bill pending? If so, what is the bill number? If not, you are probably too late to get anything done this session as all bills have to be out of one house by today.
