Draft 2 Now Available!

Draft 1 of the DDRA was released on December 18, 2008. Since then, there have been approximately 30 community meetings on Draft 1 (see list in 12 point font and LARGE PRINT) including 11 meetings where people came together to review and revise Draft 1 on a section-by-section basis. Many people also used email and telephone to make suggestions on how to improve the draft bill.

Thank you to everyone who came to meetings & took the time to share your ideas!
