13 Dems not yet cosponsoring bill to overturn Gulf Coast Wage Cut

http://www.talkingpointsmemo.com/archives/week_2005_09_18.php#006623

Now down to a mere thirteen Democrats who haven't yet signed on as cosponsors of H.R. 3763, the bill to overturn the Gulf Coast Wage Cut ...

1. Mr. Sanford D. Bishop Jr. of Georgia
2. Mr. Dan Boren of Oklahoma
3. Mr. Rick Boucher of Virginia
4. Mr. Allen Boyd of Florida
5. Mr. Robert E. "Bud" Cramer Jr. of Alabama
6. Mr. Henry Cuellar of Texas
7. Mr. Lincoln Davis of Tennessee
8. Mr. Bob Etheridge of North Carolina
9. Mr. Mike McIntyre of North Carolina
10. Ms. Cynthia McKinney of Georgia
11. Mr. John M. Spratt Jr. of South Carolina
12. Mr. John S. Tanner of Tennessee
13. Mr. Melvin L. Watt of North Carolina

The number of Republicans who have signed on as cosponsors has now risen to zero.
