April 2006 M&S Caucus: In the News M&S Caucus Chairman Congressman Randy Forbes Urges President to Support Modeling & Simulation Last month, Congressman Randy Forbes met with President Bush to discuss the important role that Modeling & Simulation can have in addressing national challenges such as military preparedness and operations, homeland security, disaster preparedness and relief, energy management and education. To further this discussion, Forbes recently sent a letter to the President to encourage his support and utilization of the many advancements available to the Administration through application of Modeling & Simulation. In a letter addressed to the President, Forbes states: “Modeling and Simulation is the single most powerful tool available to support our nation's international competitiveness in a wide variety of economic sectors. It is clear that an effective and diverse national industrial infrastructure already exists to advance this industry . . . The Modeling and Simulation Caucus offers you and your administration a distinctive and imaginative opportunity to highlight your commitment to America's international economic competitiveness."
