Tuesday 27 Sept 2011 update via twitter:
 
 Dominic Pileggi  by PaHR_Access...SB361 was approved by the , 48 to 0. It now moves to the House for consideration. 

The historians and genealogists lobbying for better access to Pennyslvania historical vital records need your help.
People for Better Pennsylvania Historical Records Access has announced the important enabling legislation, Vital Records Bill SB-361, may come before the state senate for a vote as early as next week.
"There is no such thing as too many phone calls, letters, emails and visits to their offices. Even for legislators who have already decided to vote in favor of this bill it helps them to know their vote has a lot of support and also makes it easier for them to encourage their colleagues to do the same." 

Genealogists are asked to "send messages of support for SB 361 to Majority Leader Dominic Pileggi and ... other [members of the senate]." See the link below for sample letters and the list of the various senate members.
