A lot of americans know about the arc, the National Downs Syndrome Society as well as autism speaks. So were grateful for their support but we still have a ways to go. One of the best ways to ensure that this legislation will get over the goal line we dont want to use too many football analogies here, but if were if were getting close, even if were in the socalled red zone, were not in the end zone yet.
