RE: [CPEO-MEF] RAB questions

[walshw@pepperlaw.com]

You might want to make the distinction between what a RAB member can raise
and what DoD will list to.  If the same group of people who are RAB members
form an ad hoc group of concerned citizens, they can comment on anything.
As citizens, DoD should provide some response.  The fact that the "official"
RAB process is focused on a limited number of issues means that you cannot
"speak" as the RAB and DoD must responds to you as citizens, not RAB
members.  

In summary, I would get some paper with another letterhead (other than the
RAB) and comment on whatever you want to comment on.  Cc your local
Congressman and others.  The existence of a RAB cannot take away any rights
that you have to comment.
