Noteworthy news and member activities--

Foster Bill:  At our request, Camen called Jeremy and verified that the latest version of the Foster bill included an amendment that added the request to lift the HHS research ban.

@Former user (Deleted) @Tom Jones

Discussed the Jeremy Grant's briefing to Kantara on the Foster Bill:  Overall most were pleased and said it was informative. There was agreement that HHS/CMS should be involved in crafting details, and Jeremy Grant indicated as such.

Dr. Tom made reference to the letter he and Colin are sending to selected individuals in support of lifting the ban against HHS funding research on digital identities; Tom Jones had sent a letter to his local Congressperson in support of this effort.
