High Tech Voting Guide
for the 110th Congress
2007 – 2008
13307_ITI_VoteGuide_FINAL 11/26/08 9:27 AM Page 1
ITI’s High Tech Voting Guide is one of only two
business group ratings to be published in the
Almanac of American Politics. The guide serves as
both a report card for Members of Congress on key
tech issues, and as a reflection of ITI’s legislative
priorities during the 110th Congress (2007-2008).
Today, ITI continues to represent diverse companies
on the cutting edge of technology, and its mission
today is identical to that of its founders in 1916 –
to shape policy issues that create an environment
in which its companies can thrive and compete
globally. Specifically, ITI supports policies that:
• Enhance the global competitiveness of the US tech industry
• Reduce barriers that stifle innovation
• Create access to new and emerging markets
• Promote e-commerce expansion
• Protect consumer choice
• Support investment in present and future generations of the US workforce
The Information Technology Industry Council (ITI)
was founded in 1916 as the National Association
of Office Appliance Manufacturers. The Association
underwent several reorganizations in response to
the new challenges facing the rapidly changing
and expanding US tech industry up through 1973,
when it became known as the Computer Business
Equipment Manufacturers Association (CBEMA).
In 1994, CBEMA underwent another reorganization,
and was re-named the Information Technology
Industry Council. The new name, which ITI retains
today, better reflects the dynamic IT industry as
it currently exists – consisting of manufacturers
and suppliers of computers, telecommunications,
business equipment, software, and IT services.
