Re: White House Petition for FIRST Funding

Even with very minimal support, teams can be successful in the FIRST community.

This petition is not meant to get that funding. It is a tool to get the conversation started about the importance of STEM in our country's future.
I could apply the same logic to FTC and FLL as well. In fact, I've personally experienced what happens when the talking heads up top dictate that something is going to happen and no one in the trenches has any idea how to implement it (for FRC, FLL, FTC, VEX, and BEST).
