13 Rankings of Federal Policy Issues Impact Employment

14 Federal Issues What s Missing Stronger Advocacy for Active Transportation Licensure Pollinators Climate Change

15 Top Areas of Interest Transportation Water and Stormwater Parks and Recreation Community Development

16 Federal Issues to Evaluate Small Business

17 Federal Issues to Evaluate Small Business Interest in small business issues continues to be low with membership Open rates for small business news, alerts, updates, etc. continues to be low Not relevant to a broad segment of members Federal small business issues apply to larger firms Federal small business programs too onerous for micro sized firms, like many LA firms. Issue does not speak to or utilize the particular expertise of landscape architects Landscape architects cannot be leaders on the issue Other small business organizations have more credibility and can be looked to for information

18 Federal Issues to Evaluate Pollinators

19 Federal Issues to Evaluate Pollinators Glad to see ASLA take a leadership role on this issue Continue these leadership efforts Landscape architects beginning to see more work as a result of pollinator-related RFPs Expand designing for pollinators beyond rights-of-ways

20 2016 National Pollinator Week Activities Promoted National Pollinator Week Presented at the Congressional Pollinator Protection Caucus briefing Highways to Habitats: Enhancing Pollinator Forage Areas, with panelist Keith Robinson, ASLA, principal landscape architect in the California Department of Transportation Hosted National Pollinator Week Congressional Reception with stakeholders, congressional and administration staff, and local landscape architects 2016 Pollinator Week Congressional Briefing Presenter: Keith Robinson, ASLA CALTRANS

21 Federal Issues to Evaluate STEM

22 Federal Issues to Evaluate STEM Pros: - ASLA original legislation - non-partisan & non-political - tells the story of landscape architecture - advocacy efforts will also help to educate legislators on the profession - re-energize the ASLA grassroots - help engage students and emerging professionals in advocacy and ASLA as a whole; - could attract news students to the profession Cons: - ASLA working alone on issue no coalition partners - increased resources needed - learning curve and need to establish new contacts - requires an ASLA-led campaign with all departments (messaging is critical) - ASLA has a STEM application pending with Homeland Security

23 Federal Issues to Evaluate Climate Change

24 Community Infrastructure and Development Transportation Water and Stormwater Parks and Recreation

25 2012 ASLA Professional Award Winner Powell Street Promenade San Francisco, CA Firm: Hood Design Questions and Discussion
