Re: Virginia Teams: Action requested

I saw Sally while walking through the hallway said she didn't know anything about it. I asked if we could make an announcement or fit it into opening/closing ceremonies. I was told not until she fully looked at it, which I inferred wouldn't happen until after the event. I didn't even think to go straight to Dean with it.

I find it somewhat depressing to believe VA FIRST would retweet something of this magnitude and not follow it through to the end. Parents are not on twitter. I'm on twitter occasionally. I don't really facebook, and neither do a lot of parents. Kids look at government stuff and the importance goes straight over their heads, especially if it's a social media sub-team.

It's a bit frustrating we don't have full leadership support to take this thing the rest of the way. There have been many attempts and forms at this type of bill in the past, with lobbying from a lot of teams in the state. This bill is one of the few that has been successful, and we should all support it.
