Subject: Federal Attempt to Close Birth Records
Date: Thu, 07 Oct 2004 10:04:10 -0700


The bill seeking to attempt to do this is HR 10. For further information,
please see www.rootdig.com/hr10.html

This bill is on a fast track; they are trying to pass it before the
election. Please contact your representatives immediately after reading the
suggested language listed on the above web site.
We as genealogists need access to these records. Delayed birth records can
get us back to people born in the late 1800's (these are birth records
issued when a person is older in life but needs a birth certificate.

Thanks.

Carla Tate
