Dear Bob – Let’s talk about patent legislation and policy

Thursday, February 5th, 2009

We’ve got a new Congressman – Bob Latta – here in Perrysburg (and the rest of Ohio’s 5th Congressional District). I don’t know where Bob stands on patent reform and other patent policy issues, so I was a bit intrigued when I recently received a “let’s talk” mailer from his office.

According to the card, Bob’s “door is always open” and he is ready and willing to assist “if you have problems with federal agencies such as social security, veterans concerns, passport problems, or other federal issues.” The return mailer card has a series of check boxes next to the standard issues that are keeping people awake at night – economy, energy, Iraq/Afghanistan, Social Security, etc.

There’s also a check box for “other.” Hmmmm…he did say he’s ready to help with “other federal issues.”

My completed card appears below. I’ll let you know the substance of any response I receive.
