KLUG is specifically prohibited from lobbying, or involving itself in the 
politccal process, as an organization.

However, this does not stop....

    - Individual (KLUG members) from speaking to candidates or elected 
      officials.
    - KLUG from conducting "educational" sessions for any of the above.
    - KLUG providing orientation and other services for people who wish to 
      perform either of the above.

There's plenty of room for action and activity here, and it's just as clear 
that many of the people standing for office have no idea what to think about 
these things. We can educate them, I'm sure of it.
