We have a communications staff and experts available to explain public policy details and will provide a perspective on scale and ownership that is usually unique to the mainstream discussions.
If you have a question we can help with, please contact John Bailey in our Minneapolis office at info@ilsr.org or call 612-379-3815 ext. 211.
