Well, it appears as though the fear factor was far less effective in gaining votes than the fear of those who use it! The recent shift of power in House of Representatives and the Senate certainly sent a clear message to Washington, but it shouldn't end there. There are many ways social workers can get involved and stay involved - This is the time to contact members of congress by writing letters and sending emails to legislators. On the NASW website, visit Congress Web for a simple step by step guide to taking an action and making a difference. Paste the website below into your browser.
