Procedurally the Executive Committee either can decide to do this, or can order a mail vote of the Board, the result of which would be binding on the EC.

I think we need to go public here and I do not see any downside from this action. But I do think there could be a downside if we do not take a position; our members expect it. Even if we think the bill is going to go nowhere, which I hope it will, I think we need to be on the record as opposing this bill. Frank...N2FF..... Tom Frenaye wrote:
I also believe we have a lot of members who find our association with the NWS to be very positive (and vice versa). I think it'd be a good move for us to publicly state that we do not support S.786.
