Not only is there ongoing issues with the NAD President and CEO as we mentioned in the last post, apparently, many current registered delegates are still upset with the current FCC policy that requires all new/and or current VRS users must give out their SSN in order to use VRS services such as Purple, Convo, and Sorenson.
Sean Gerlis, an extremely active #nad2016 Twitter user, posted on Twitter a picture of the delegates discussion on that issue.

And it looks like that this debate got started after Zainab Allebsi and Howard Rosenblum talked about the Preservation and Advocacy of Relay Services.
