<br>
Seriously, I'm on a train, don't have access to one right now. Robin?<br>

I just phoned the committee about how to get it in their hands. They said they don't accept anything via email (nice, huh?), only fax or snail mail.<br>
<br>
So let's fax the letter to the committee. This is the fax number they gave me <a href="tel:202-225-7680" value="+12022257680">202-225-7680</a><br>
<br>
Terrific work on the letter, KK!<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>

<div class="im">Thanks Bill – the members of the committee are there but there are no contact details and I don’t have the bandwidth to go through them all to find their addresses. There are too many – does anyone have the address of someone we can send this letter to?<br>
<br>
Thanks<br>
<br>
KK<br>
<br>
PS: perhaps someone in the US can send this letter due to time differences?<br>

Nice. I'm really slammed now and can't play with wording, but you might consider breaking up the one para sentence at the top, adding mention of undermining international support for the US-favored governance model, and noting the letters of opposition from EU etc. Or not.<br>
<br>
I'd send it to the committee members. I gave the house comm URL in the skype yesterday, Senate comm will have a page too.<br>

Dear all,<br>
<br>
As discussed in yesterday’s policy call, here is a draft of the letter NCUC will send in relation to SOPA and PIPA and I would like to thank Brenden for getting a first crack at this. I am not sure who it should be addressed to and I don’t have the email or any contact as such. Can someone in the US please try to identify who this should be sent to and what is his/her contact details? Also, I don’t know if I should sign it the way I did – I did it as I think we need to have a name rather than just NCUC.<br>
<br>
The letter needs to be sent today as presumably tomorrow PIPA is headed for a mark-up.<br>
<br>
