The Tech sector has grown to be 1/6th of our national economy – equal to that of health care. Yet for most people, candidates included, it remains a niche and indeed alien policy sphere.  This simply can not continue to be the case. 

Why Tech Issues Matter in the 2012 Campaign and Beyond will address a wide array of Tech policy areas - and show candidates why they should care. Both before and after the election.
