Sent the following email on 1/30:

Hello Samantha,

I am reaching out to ask if Representative Foster will cosponsor the Disability Integration Act again. The DIA was reintroduced on January 15th as HR. 555 (and in the Senate it was introduced by Minority Leader Schumer as S. 117). The bill is both bicameral and bipartisan, and already has 92 cosponsors in the House. Last session Rep. Foster cosponsored the bill, then known as HR 2472. The bill is substantially the same with minor technical edits which were suggested by AARP. I???m attaching basic information of the bill as a brief overview.

Will Representative Foster cosponsor DIA?

Thanks,

Sophie Poost
