Such visits would help awardees see more of the life cycle of Federal policy – being made in Congress, being implemented in the agencies, and being affirmed or rejected in the courts. I suspect that many of us agency employees who are ESA members would be happy to find time in the work day to visit with the awardees and explain how their various agencies implement the policy that Congress legislates.
