In December, 2011, Ms. Roger sent a letter to the U.S. senate and applicable parties in order to spread a positive message about [[ICANN]], its new gTLD program, and the potential it brings with it. The letter was sent ahead of a series of hearings scheduled for the U.S. Senate and Congress, that seem to mainly be brought about through the anti-TLD lobbying of the [[Association of National Advertisers]]. Annalisa Roger offered her opinions as a invested member of the ICANN community that participated throughout the whole gTLD expansion process, and as an individual looking forward to further innovation on the Internet through gTLDs. Her letter can be read [http://www.dotgreen.org/general/gtld-hearing/ here]. | In December, 2011, Ms. Roger sent a letter to the U.S. senate and applicable parties in order to spread a positive message about [[ICANN]], its new gTLD program, and the potential it brings with it.
