Subcommittee on Oversight and Investigations 9:30 a.m. in room 2123 Rayburn House Office Building There's a witness list that I can't read due to my antiquated pedal powered system.

Also there's stil time for a phone call or an email to subcommittee (O & I) members: http://energycommerce.house.gov/memb...ullmship.shtml Not as user friendly as the other submittee (Appropriations - Ag) - that one had clickable links to each member.

If you're not a constituent some of them can't figure out why you're calling. Although Rep Jan Schakowsky (D) of IL wrote to the head of the FDA on March 28 about the pet food recall, her phone person did not know anything about the hearing nor if she would be attending, did not bother to find out and wanted to know exactly who I was. Well, I am a citizen of the US, I do not happen to have a congressional representative from my state on your committee, but AFAIC this subcommittee represents ALL of the US as food safety is a serious issue! Schakowsky seems to be a go getter, but she needs to fire her phone person. Mike Doyle has another hearing at the same time and they're figuring out how to be in 2 places at once. They couldn't tell me if Henry Waxman would be there but graciously took my comment. .......OK, I'm done, fried, crispy buglady take out the dog before replying |
