Urgent Action Requested - LightSquared

[Administrator]

The House of Representatives Science Committee will have a hearing on September 8, 2011 on the Impacts of the LightSquared Network. The hearing was originally scheduled for August 3, and the witnesses are representatives from Federal agencies and one person from the Space Policy Institute at George Washington University. But they need YOUR imput. This is your chance to tell Congress how the LightSquared issue will affect you and your business. LightSquared is pulling out all the stops to try to ram their plans down the throats of GPS users --- many of whom are the surveying community. This is an opportunity to fight back.

If you feel strongly about LightSquared's plan to render GPS useless, then sit down NOW and send an e-mail to Congressman Ralph Hall, Chairman of the House Science Committee. His staff person contact is Leslee Gilbert, leslee.gilbert@mail.house.gov, (202) 225-9816. And, while you're at it, copy your own Representative as well. If you don't know his or her contact, you can find it here: www.house.gov.

We've attached a sample letter that you can use. MAKE SURE YOU REFERENCE THE SEPTEMBER 8 LIGHTSQUARED HEARING IN YOUR SUBJECT LINE. LightSquared is doing everything it can to push its plan forward; surveyors need to do everything we can to stop them.

Thanks for your continued help and support!
