What are special interst groups saying to Obama?

The Obama-Biden transition web site (change.gov) has a section called "Your Seat at the Table."

In that section the Obama crew posts the documents the get from groups offering advice to the president elect.

For example...

The ACLU issued a paper called "Actions for Restoring America." In it the civil liberties group called for (among other points) the closing of the Guantanamo prison facility, an end to the the Ashcroft Doctrine on FOI and an end to the abortion gag rule.

The International Brotherhood of Boilermakers (and no, these are not bartenders) prepared a document on global warming.

Lots of interesting reading.
