[ALAC] Fwd: Re: Draft letter to House Energy & Commerce Committee

[Holly Raiche]

Hi Everyone

First - well done on the letter- and congratulations to Olivier and Beau

Next, on Evan's point, I tent to agree.  Maybe just a link to the org structure so those who don't know where ALAC sits can find out.

Well done


Kind regards
