• Firm in receipt of over 400 letters generated by District Directors addressed to 81 House members and 5 senators.
• Coordinated letter receipts with congressional distribution in meetings.  Most letters received from non-targetted districts have been forwarded to their respective offices with ARRL packets and our personal letter.
• Meetings with staff on ARRL’s multiple issues during the past two weeks:
  • Rep. Mike Ferguson (R 7^th NJ)
  • Rep. Ted Strickland (D 6^th OH)
  • Rep. Sherrod Brown (D 13^th OH) - Just yesterday we were informed by Rep. Brown’s office that they are very interested in supporting ARRL members throughout Ohio, as the Congressman is making a Senate bid this fall.
  • Rep. George Radanovich (R 19^th CA)
  • Rep. John Shadegg (R 3^rd AZ)
  • Rep. Lee Terry (R 2^nd NE)

• Senate visits went well with Sen. DeWine and Sen. Kay Bailey Hutchison’s offices, both expressing interest in possible Senate legislation.

• Our visitations are concentrating on the ‘88’ Senate and House targets (preferably with district letters) during the initial 90 day period.
