NOW:  Please CALL your 2 Senators at their D.C. offices to Co-Sponsor the bill! Tell your relatives & friends to do this, too!  More details & other options below!

Also, please complete the 65th Inf. Reg. Borinqueneers Census if you know of a LIVING Borinqueneer!

Please help SPREAD THE WORD, too!  

Mission Accomplished!

YOUR "Marching Orders" to Contact Congress: MORE Senators needed NOW!

PictureContact Congress! Click to enlarge!
Here's how YOU can HELP quickly & easily right NOW!  Ask your family & friends to do this, too!

5 different ways to Contact YOUR U.S. Senators & ask them to Co-Sponsor the bills!!!

1) CALL the Military Legislative Assistant (MLA) at your (2) U.S. Senators' offices in Washington, D.C.!

Contact the Military Legislative Assistant via telephone. There will be a record of your call (legal requirement)! 


Here is a sample Phone Script:

“Hello, my name is First Name, Last Name. I currently reside in City, State. I am requesting that my Senator CO-SPONSOR Bill S. 1174 which will award the Congressional Gold Medal to the 65th Infantry Regiment Borinqueneers.
If passed, this legislation will make history for all Latino Veterans and all Latinos alike. I look forward to a favorable response from your office. Thank you.”


The Senators we still need to become Co-Sponsors are organized by state here with their D.C. office phone numbers:  NEED these Senators!

2) You can MAIL A LETTER to their district/state offices, NOT Washington DC offices because of extra delays in mail delivery for security reasons. 

3) But, you can also FAX YOUR LETTER to their DC office!!!

4) You can complete the quick & easy email WEB FORMS on their official gov't. Senator websites.  The Senators we still need to become Co-Sponsors are organized by state here with direct links to their online Web Forms:  NEED these Senators! 

5) You can send REGULAR EMAILS to the primary D.C. staffers of your elected congressional officials. To email your elected officials' D.C. staffers, see our D.C. Staffer Email Contact List

Who has already Co-Sponsored?  See current Co-Sponsors here:  65th Infantry Bill Co-sponsor Countdown

Which Senators do we still need?  See current list by state of Senators who have NOT Co-Sponsored S.1174:  NEED these Senators!  Tell your relatives & friends who live in these states!

Importante!
If you are a 65th Infantry Regiment veteran or know of a LIVING 65th Infantry Regiment, please Contact Us immediately with your information!!!  


  • Obtain the basic, non-private information of LIVING 65th Inf. Veterans in your areas so we can include them to our census list.
  • The information on living 65th Inf. Veterans will substantiate our claim to our Congressional officials for the Gold Medal.
  • What we need is the following: 
           -Name
           -Address
           -Phone Number
           -Unit they served with 
              65th (i.e.,what company)
