Summaries for Congress

[Laurie Maak <lauriem@network-democracy.org>]

Good question, Joan. We had invited several dozen member of Congress to join the Dialogue but none, at least so far, have done so. It couldn't be a busier time, of course. I will be sending them Patty's summaries. Many of the staffers indicated they were quite interested in seeing them and they appreciated of my offer to keep them in the loop.  It certainly is important for lawmakers to hear directly from citizens and, when possible, to participate themselves. It's a terrific opportunity for everyone!
