They have money. We don't. :) Also, do you have a tentative agenda for next week? Having fun with Mom?

We've been having a number of conversations with the Koch team.  In fact, they are coming into our offices on Tuesday of next week for our second in person meeting.  WE are also working with Right on Crime and asking them to join our coalition.  Are there other groups  you think we should be focusing on? > > Ashley > > -----Original Message----> From: Allison DeFoor [mailto:adefoor@ask4ci.com] > Sent: Tuesday, December 09, 2014 10:01 AM > To: Ashley Hanna > Cc: Deborrah Brodsky > Subject: ALEC Conference > > Ashley, > > Just wanted to give you some feedback from a trio last week to DCA, that fits into our conversations.  > > We presented to the American Legislative Exchange Council (ALEC) which is a conservative forum for interaction between legislators and industry (that is a very polite description of what goes on, but it is a very influential organization).

Here in FLORIDA we have been asked to testify to the Senate in January, so stay tuned... About time for a trip to FLORIDA for you?  January 5th is our hearing. It won't be snowing here. Promise.
