Hi,

Many colleagues on geonet have mentioned an interest in maps, as well as the legislative process; may be of interest, the December 5 hearing on H.R. 1604 ( http://beta.congress.gov/bill/113th/house-bill/1604 ) and H.R. 916 ( http://beta.congress.gov/bill/113th/house-bill/916 ) :  http://naturalresources.house.gov/calendar/eventsingle.aspx?EventID=362627
[ the subcommittee session begins at 20 minutes into the video...]

- for example, Laws and Regulations Governing USGS Activities: http://www.usgs.gov/laws/index.html

Enjoy the day,
Emily
