What was lobbied
3 issue areas, each in the filer's own words, with who lobbied on it and where.
Defense DEF
U.S. Transportation Command (USTC), within DoD, is pushing to outsource the management of the Defense Personal Property Program (DP3) to sole source provider. We have lobbied Congress to closely examine this decision and USTC's process. We have asked offices to include language in the upcoming National Defense Reauthorization Act (NDAA) to delay the sole source award until a DP3 Working Group is established and issues recommendations on how to improve the program. We have also sent letters to General Lyons at USTC to ask for the same.

Transportation TRA
We have lobbied the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration to expedite release of the Household Goods Consumer Protection Working Group report, the result of a working group formed in response to a provision in the FAST Act. The in person meetings are done and we met with FMCSA to get briefed on it's progress. We briefly met with one House office to prepare them for our eventual push on the issue, legislatively, once the report is released.

Homeland Security HOM
We are advocating for a statutory change to U.S. Customs and Border Protection rules that currently are exposing Americans' personal data when they move abroad. We are lobbying lawmakers in support of H.R. 2521/S. 1302, the Moving Americans Privacy Protection Act. We have asked DoD and GSA to issue letters of support to interested lawmakers, as U.S. servicemen and foreign service personnel are exposed to this problem often.
