Secretary Zinke is looking forward to participating in your event. Thank you again for the opportunity. I'm not sure why anyone said you couldn't advertise the event until after Labor Day. Our only request is to review and approve anything that has his name on it. Any press releases, advisories, invites, emails, mailings, program books, etc. needs to be approved by our office before it's released/announced. We appreciate your understanding. Can you please send me the latest draft agenda with speakers? He has another commitment that morning so I'm not sure if I can get him there until closer to 9:15/9:30am. Does that time do work? Thank you!

End result is you all need to reach out to scheduling again to confirm the time slot and discuss materials. The scheduling office will need to get every piece of information you are planning to send out or post on a website with the Secretary's name on it as it will need to be approved and run through ethics. You have a contact at the scheduling office correct? On Tue, Sep 4, 2018 at 8:43 PM, Heather Reams <hreams@citizensfor.com> wrote: Hi Todd and Jason, I hope you had a nice Labor Day weekend. I wanted to thank you for your time last week to meet with Susie, Charles and me. We covered a lot of ground, and I hope that we will regularly be in touch. More immediately, I wanted to check in on availability of the Secretary speaking at the National Clean Energy Week Policy Makers Symposium at the National Press Club on Wednesday, September 26. You had indicated that the Secretary was confirmed, although the office asked that we hold off promoting until after Labor Day, and that we still needed to find a time slot. Currently, we have the Secretary as the morning kickoff speaker at 8:05AM, subject to your confirmation. Would you please let me know if that time is convenient? I assume we are ok to mention his participation in the symposium now that we are after Labor Day but would appreciate a nod on that, too!
