When will the Mueller report be made public?

Hi Ted, would you have any use for volunteers who know the area and speak the language? I have friends in Washington DC who were Peace Corps volunteers in Tacloban.

They'd like to volunteer their time, would they be able to help at your DC office, possibly with mapping or translation?

Many, many organizations hold advocacy days, where they invite their stakeholders to DC and schedule meetings between them and their Representatives. I've participated in many.

A cause is always bolstered by numbers. That's why many of the world's most effective nonprofits have a presence in Washington. Unfortunately, the ratio between numbers and relevance is not always linear.
