ATA Government Relations Committee Established

The ATA Government Relations Committee has been organized in response to the increasing number of requests for the Association to provide input on a number of legislative and regulatory affairs. Its work is part of ATA’s mission to promote the recognition of the translation and interpreting professions.

The Government Relations Committee is charged to do the following:

• Monitor the activities of local, state, and national legislative and regulatory bodies.
• Provide recommendations for responding to requests from these bodies.
• Provide information regarding government activities to the Board and the general membership.
• Address international regulatory issues, as appropriate.
