Hello,

Katie Lage shared this with the CUAC membership. I thought that I would
share it with you.

It was introduced by Congressman Doug Lamborn (R-CO). The full title of
the bill is:

To establish the National Geospatial Technology Administration within
the United States Geological Survey to enhance the use of geospatial
data, products, technology, and services, to increase the economy and
efficiency of Federal geospatial activities, and for other purposes.
