Hurricane Katrina Accountability and Contracting Reform Act (H.R. 3838)

The Hurricane Katrina Accountability and Contracting Reform Act (H.R. 3838)
(http://thomas.loc.gov/cgi-bin/bdquery/z?d109:h.r.03838)

A bill to create an anti-fraud commission to prevent wasteful spending, to ban abusive contracting practices, and to increase contracting transparency. This commission would help ensure that the government money going to relief efforts actually goes to relief efforts. The GAO and The Washington Post have already reported severe money mismanagement, and it seems it would be in the best interests of the Gulf Coast if this stopped.

Who to call: Rep. Candice S. Miller (10th District, MI)
Phone: (202) 225-6465
Website: http://candicemiller.house.gov/

What to say: 1. This bill is critical to the speedy recovery of the Gulf Coast.
2. No action has been taken on this bill since September, 2005. 3. As a concerned citizen of Michigan, I would like to see the House take action to approve this bill immediately.
