If you are a member of Alcor and live in Arizona, please see the link below for instruction on how you can help stop the Stump bill. If the Stump bill passes, Alcor will fall under the jurisdiction of the Funeral Board. The Director of the Funeral Board was quoted in the New York Times on 11/14/2003: "These companies need to be regulated or deregulated out of business." The passage of the Stump bill will ultimately affect your right to choose, so please help us stop this bill.

Praised by Citizens for Arizona Policy as "one of Arizona's most articulate and eloquent champions of conservative ideals," State Representative Bob Stump was appointed, as a freshman, to four of the most influential committees in the legislature: Ways & Means, Commerce & Military Affairs, Financial Institutions & Insurance and Health (Vice-Chair).

From John Grigg:

Bruce,

Alcor president Joe Waynick is sending out a plea to everyone to contact key Arizona Representatives and let them know the underhanded schemes of Rep. Bob Stump http://www.azleg.state.az.us/MembersPage.a...sp?Member_ID=85 to regulate Alcor out of business are not going to be tolerated.

If this bill passes we will have Alcor regulated by the funeral industry and subject very probably to a five year limit on how long bodies can be stored in the state of Arizona. That situation would be utterly intolerable.

This is a race against time because a last minute hearing will be occuring this Thursday! So please post a eye-grabbing banner message on your website to make sure people get informed on Alcor's moment of great challenge.

Please include the Alcor http://www.alcor.org/legislativealert.html
website address and also Mr. Stump's addy. I think people should know who is behind this.

Mobilize the troops!
Assemble the fleet!
Prepare for battle!!

Everyone needs to do their part and get involved on this one. AND FAST!

best wishes,

John Grigg
