Government

I've searched high, low... hell I tried everything but Yahoo and asking my dog (my dog being more useful). Is there a module where users can input their zip code and basic information and then email their senators?

If there isn't, is there a write up on how to combine a set of modules to deliver this functionality? No combination of keywords I can cook up is doing me any good...

Random things I've tried to search for to find this (to help a future person who thinks like I do):

Session submissions are open for DrupalCon Denver and we’re excited to have an entire track devoted to the Nonprofit, Government & Education sectors. We have some great featured speakers confirmed. We’re also seeing a growing number of sessions being proposed -- but we need a lot more!

Hi group,
It was an amazing experience developing ICAR’s website (http://www.icar.org.in/ - a government website). You can check the credit line in footer. Faced lot of difficulties in convincing from security and sustainability point of view but finally we could do it. Though it was not easy...
But the best part of it is that we could motivate and help other institutes of ICAR in developing their websites in Drupal. Will add their links in list.
Would love to share my experiences and have positive feedback.
Thanks

I think this will become a possible continuing thing, so, I'll use this thread to post items related to GSA usability testing as they come up.

If you're able to participate, by webinar or in person (there's no remuneration), please contact Janelle Thalls at 202-253-1287 or janelle.thalls@gsa.gov

This June we will celebrate the first ever Drupal for Cities Month.

Drupal for Cities is a month dedicated to building knowledge and sustainable community around using Drupal for cities and municipal government websites and projects.

Get involved
Start Thinking & planning
If you are interested in participating, join the conversation now. Think about what project you might like to lead, or what you would like to get out of the month. (Let us know if you will be at Open Gov West in May.)

Announce what you will do

I just got the word, I'm going to Drupalcon.

So, now, time to start the discussion and organizing for Birds of a Feather times, dates and topics.

I've been playing around with a couple of different Government based types like:

1. All Government (including contractors and all employees of State, Local and Federal at any country at Drupalcon)
2. US Government (state, local, fed including legislative and judicial branches, NO Contractors, sometimes, there are things we have to discuss and can't with contractors present.)

For any interested UK parties, I've just created a Drupal group on Communities of Practice, a public sector social site run by the Local Government Improvement and Development (formerly IDeA, see Wikipedia) branch of the Local Government Association for general Drupal advocacy and support.

All,

I just wanted to make everyone aware of the Drupal CMS Club group on GovLoop. We have almost 100 members at this point. Now that I have some time to focus on Gov 2.0 engagement again, I would be thrilled if anyone from this group joined and engaged in conversation on the site.

The Department of the Prime Minister and Cabinet have just released the 2011 CHOGM website that was built using Drupal. It's great to see the department continue their fine work in showcasing just what Drupal can do for government departments. This comes on the back of the Prime Ministers site being redeveloped in Drupal last year.

I am curious about Drupal's direction in the world of GIS. Not just showing a map, but being able to efficiently present several layers with a good interface to manage those layers ,etc. much like a more heavyeight local GIS client. I don't really have any projects in particular, but I have numerous projects that could probably start "if only" there was a solution out there within my clients budgets.
