Girl Scout Centennial Coin in Bill Form
Posted by admin under: fundraising .
When is a coin not a coin? When it’s a bill! Representative Jack Kingston of Georgia and his 15 co-sponsors introduced H.R. 621 in Congress yesterday “To require the Secretary of the Treasury to mint coins in commemoration of the centennial of the establishment of the Girl Scouts of the United States of America”.
It was then referred to the the House Committee on Financial Services which is currently still dealing with some sort of small blip in the economy or something. I guess we need to actually confirm Timothy Geithner as our new SecTres and something tells me he’s got bigger crops to pick that a bunch of Daisy mementos.
I don’t know how long these things take, although I recall the BSA coin legislation taking its own sweet time making it through the process. Still 2012 is just around the corner and this bill should be a no brainer for everyone to support.
