Looks like they just want a rubber stamp. Let me get mine out.

I am forwarding this from Elizabeth Tunstall whohas done some great
work on trying to create a national design policy here in the US. I
know that other countries have already created design policy groups,
but in the US we haven't, so her leadership in this area is a pretty
big deal.
Anyway, I thought I would forward this on to people's attention. I
know I'll be following and contributing where I can.

Subject: [AIGAExperienceDesign] Call to Action: Redesigning
America's Future
To: [email protected]
**Sorry for Cross-Postings**
Dear AIGA Experience Design group,
The U.S. National Design Policy Initiative has released its policy
brief,
Redesigning America¹s Future, which outlines ten design policy
proposals to
support U.S. economic competitiveness and democratic governance.
http://www.designpolicy.org/usdp/policy-proposals.html This is one
of two
publications coming out of the U.S. National Design Policy Summit.
The other
publication will be the Summit Report on January 16, 2009.
The Call to Action is for people to go to the U.S. National Design
Policy
Initiative website, http://www.designpolicy.org to leave comments
about
individual policy proposals or offer official endorsements of the
Initiative
and the ten design policy proposals. Sorry, but the official
endorsement
part is more effective if you are a U.S. Citizen or Resident Alien.
People
have gone and downloaded the publication, but without leaving
comments or
endorsements. We need them in order to demonstrate to Congress and the
incoming Obama Administration popular support for the Initiative and
the
policy proposals.
I hope that you will show your support at the http://www.designpolicy.org
website.
Warm regards,
Dori Tunstall
