   The American Library Association has sent a letter to all United States
senators asking them to co-sponsor the Strengthening Kids’ Interest in
Learning and Libraries (SKILLS) Act. The letter can be viewed

The SKILLS Act seeks to improve student achievement by ensuring more
students have access to an effective school library program. If your senator
has not already co-sponsored this bill, please call them at 202-224-3121 and
ask that they co-sponsor the SKILLS Act.

As of September 22 the following senators have agreed to co-sponsor this
bill:

Jack Reed (D-RI)
Thad Cochran (R-MS)
Patty Murray (D-WA)
Jay Rockefeller (D-WV)
Sheldon Whitehouse (D-RI)
