RE: Government Affairs Network: Information Requested
__________________________________________________________
The Institute's Legislative Affairs Department is updating
its Government Affairs Network database and is requesting
important information concerning your willingness to meet with or
contact Members of Congress and other senior policy makers on
behalf of the Institute.
The Government Affairs Network provides the Institute with
additional legislative and administrative advocacy power when
vital issues that affect the investment company industry are
considered by Congress and the Administration. Regional
Legislative Working Groups are made up of Institute members in
specific geographic regions and enable the Institute to organize
legislative efforts at the regional/district level. Government
Affairs Issue Groups enable us to keep you informed about
legislative issues in which you have a specific interest.
Please be assured that the information you provide will be
used for internal organizational purposes only. Under no circum-
stances will any Member of Congress or Administration official be
contacted on your behalf without your permission and prior
consultation.
Please take a few minutes to fill out the attached survey
and return it to Kathleen Bovello, Director - Legislative
Communications, at the Institute at your earliest convenience.
(If you responded to last year's Government Affairs survey, a
copy of your 1993 survey information is attached). As always,
your willingness to participate in the Institute's Government
Affairs program is greatly appreciated. If you have any
questions, please call me at 202/326-5890.
