A board for whoever runs point

Roster, schedule, and who's in which room — the day at a glance.

A private link per person

Each attendee opens it on their phone and sees just their own meetings.

Morning-after Word report

Every ask captured office by office — Agreed, Non-committal, Declined.

Description

Growth Energy's annual Biofuels Summit — billed by the org as the biofuel industry's premier advocacy event: member producers and supporters convene in Washington for policy sessions and Capitol Hill meetings with members of Congress. Core asks in the org's current agenda: year-round E15 (Nationwide Consumer and Fuel Retailer Choice framing), strong Renewable Fuel Standard volumes, and sustainable aviation fuel incentives — bill numbers left for enrichment-cron verification.
