1. Pick up the phone and call as many of the four leading members of the Commerce committee as you can:
Chairman Thomas Bliley (R-VA) (202) 225-2815 Ranking member John Dingell (D-MI) (202) 225-4071 Rep. Tauzin (R-LA) (202) 225-4031 Rep. Markey (D-MA) (202) 225-2836
2. Ask for the staffer that handles the encryption issue.
I called Bliley and Dingell, their offices are saying there is no dedicated 'staffer' on encryption, that its all being handled by Commerce Committee staff, both offices forwarded my call to the same Commerce staff person. The staff person says that right now there are no amendments formally being considered. That Oxley/Manton is just talk for the moment. Anyway I spoke my piece and said I encouraged the congressman to resist any amendments to HR695. He thanked me and said goodbye. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: PGP for Personal Privacy 5.0 Charset: noconv iQA/AwUBNCggQsdZgC62U/gIEQL7uACeKZeTN50JoiIO7WKhRbFPVWrjFV8AnAi1 XyP8wXVHO0MMAGakzq5Sg39l =d4wo -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Brian B.
