On Oct. 7, 2015, President Obama signed S. 565, The Federal Vehicle Repair Cost Savings Act of 2015. Remanufacturing legislation is now law. The new law requires federal agencies to encourage the use of remanufactured parts in federal vehicle repairs when doing so lowers costs, maintains quality and performance, and does not compromise safety. The bipartisan legislation was introduced by Senator Gary Peters (D-Mich.) and Senator James Lankford (R-Okla.) in February 2015. One month later, in March, Congressman Bill Huizenga (D-Mich.) introduced the companion legislation in the U.S. House of Representatives. The Motor & Equipment Manufacturers Association (MEMA) and its remanufacturing division the Motor & Equipment Remanufacturers Association (MERA) applaud the efforts of policymakers and industry members for pursuing this effort.

Part of the shift is in the amount of discussion — there is certainly an increase in media This shift is a strong signal for renewed commitment to the FIRST T coverage. There has also been a shift in the intensity of the vision. In the 17 years since FIRST was founded, nothing has been more conversation — there is clearly a heightened sense of urgency in the essential to our success than personal connection. The clearest example calls for solutions. Both these are positive developments.

For you, this has been personal all along. As the FIRST vision, after all. However, we believe there is another shift more people make a personal connection, we will gain more energy, happening and it has enormous potential for FIRST. create more impact, and deliver more success in changing the way our culture views science and technology. If you listen closely, you can hear a shift in the nature of the conversation.

When children’s dead bodies began washing up on the lake’s shores, locals raised alarm and took action. I met with them, and with children who’d been bought, sold, beaten, famished, raped, abused and forced to dive in fear of their lives, to catch fish larger than their arm-span, and disentangle nets caught on the branches of trees that no one bothered to clear from the lake. And as I walked away, I uneasily asked if the fish was ever sold in Europe.
