Dear Senator Clinton,
I am writing to express my support for something called the Craig Amendment which creates Traumatic Injury Insurance that will issue active duty service members a payment ranging from $25,000 to $100,000, should they incur a life altering injury while serving their nation.

This legislation, known as the Wounded Warrior Bill, was introduced as an amendment to the Emergency Supplemental Funding Bill by Senator Larry Craig (R-ID).

This provision, The Wounded Warrior Bill, was part of the senate version but not part of the House version of the Emergency Supplemental Funding

The Emergency Supplemental bill is (as I understand it) currently in Conference Committee where differences between the House of Representatives and Senate versions of this bill will be reconciled.

I recognize that neither you, nor anyone from New York is part of the conference (list of conferees provided below) so I am asking that you office contact one or more of the persons who are conferees and express your support for the Craig amendment aka the Wounded Warrior Bill.

Thank you for your time.
