I noticed this item from 7 May 2007 that I think would support my suggestion:

WHEREAS, community access to Internet Protocol (IP) numbering Resources has proved essential to the successful growth of the Internet; and,

WHEREAS, ongoing community access to Internet Protocol version 4 (IPv4) numbering resources can not be assured indefinitely; and,

WHEREAS, Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv6) numbering resources are available and suitable for many Internet applications,

BE IT RESOLVED, that this Board of Trustees hereby advises the Internet community that migration to IPv6 numbering resources is necessary for any applications which require ongoing availability from ARIN of contiguous IP numbering resources; and,

BE IT ORDERED, that this Board of Trustees hereby directs ARIN staff to take any and all measures necessary to assure veracity of applications to ARIN for IPv4 numbering resources; and,

BE IT RESOLVED, that this Board of Trustees hereby requests the ARIN Advisory Council to consider Internet Numbering Resource Policy changes advisable to encourage migration to IPv6 numbering resources where possible.

Unanimously passed by the Board of Trustees on 7 May 2007.

      The US Government tried to force it's departments to do IPv6
      most of them did it, but many promptly turned it off after
      passing the tests.


David - 
While not taking any position on the proposed policy change, I would like to
make sure the record is correct with regard to USG IPv6 deployment…

To this day, US government agencies have a high IPv6 adoption rate for their
public facing services (particularly when compared to the industry or
educational deployment rate in the US.) 
Note that you can readily show this, as NIST measures deployment daily and
publishes the results here - https://fedv6-deployment.antd.nist.gov   

Thanks,
