of the page you will see two icons; clicking on the left icon shows you who has already registered; the icon on the right allows you to register. It is important to register your support so that when the bill is up for debate on Monday, all the witness statements will be read into the record and will demonstrate the public’s support behind preserving the records, whether pro or con.

The University of Chicago Law Professor, Craig Futterman said: “It is critically important that people file witness slips in support of [this] bill.”
