Gearing up for the 109th
Republican's and Small Government? Forgetaboutit.
November and December are traditionally slow months for us government relations types. Elections are over and Congress usually isn't in session. But this year things are hopping. The agenda announced by the republicans, and pending issues that aren't yet making news have me pinned down making preparations for an onslaught of legislative activity here in DC come February. I'll spare you the issues as a discussion of extending Sarbanes-Oxley overight principles to the nonprofit community would put me into a coma at this point. But needless to say, a lot of business is being done and the host of holiday parties I'm attending around town.
