Welcome to Missouri Valley Chapter - SNM
Your help is needed
As you may have seen in the SNM Smartbrief, there is an article relating to the isotope shortage and the American Medical Isotope Production Act. The bill is being held up by our own Senator, Kit Bond. To access the article, CLICK HERE.
Please take a few minutes to support this bill and encourage
Senator Bond's office to support this bill as well. We NEED your
support on this, given that one of the possbile reactors in the
United States is right here in Misosuri.
Please go to the SNM
Legislative Action Center. Click on the "Support the
American Medical Isotope Production Act" and fill out the
form. This e-mail is already filled out, but you can type whatever
you want as well, or completely change the message.
Thank you all for your support. We need your action on this to
help ensure that we will have isotope in the future.
2010 Councilor Elections
At the 2009 MVC Annual Meeting, the Executive Council voted to use an online election process for future elections. The MVC has secured an online ballot process for this years election. However, the election company sends out the ballots for us via e-mail. These e-mails could get caught in a SPAM or JUNK filter because of the "Do Not Reply" in the senders name.. In order to help prevent this from happening, please add the following address to your "Safe Sender" or "Allowed" list of e-mail addresses:
Mark Wallenmeyer - Do Not Reply .... notices@ballotbin.com
Elections will commence on August 1st, 2010. If
you do not receive an e-mail from the domain name "ballotbin.com",
please let Mark Wallenmeyer know (exdir@mvcsnm.org). He will send
out another notice and if you still do not receive the e-mail,
Mark will send you a form via e-mail to either return via e-mail
or snail mail. If you do not have an e-mail address, please call
Mark at 417-864-7601 during normal business hours and he can mail
you a copy of the ballot.
