Re:       Update on status of America COMPETES re-authorization and letter to Senate Commerce, Science and Transportation Committee

 

Time is beginning to run short for the Senate to mark up and pass the re-authorization of the America COMPETES Act this year.  After several postponements, we now expect the Senate Commerce, Science and Transportation Committee to mark up the bill on July 15.  We have been told that prospects for bringing the bill to the Senate floor for a vote depend on whether it gets bipartisan support in the Committee.  We have not yet seen the bill language but have been told that it will be a less expensive and narrower bill than the House passed, with a three-year rather than five-year re-authorization. 

 

I understand that you may want to see the bill language before you sign your company or organization on to the attached letter to Senator Rockefeller, Chair, and Senator Hutchison, Ranking Member, of the Senate Commerce, Science and Transportation Committee.  However with the holiday weekend and vacation schedules, I wanted to start getting as many of you on the letter as possible. 

 

To sign the letter, please click here by COB on Monday, July 12.  Include the exact way you want your company or organization to be listed.  There is no need for names or signatures.

 

Thank you.
