<div dir="ltr">Thank you Kyle and it is great to see potentially more chapter representations in the United States. One question though: the proposal states the chapter's mission as "The Internet is Safe for Everyone". This seems to be not exactly the same as what I commonly understand ISOC as saying "Internet is for Everyone". I do agree that the Internet must be safe for everyone, but I want to make sure that this is not in any conflict (I don't think so but....) or perceived to be different from ISOC's mission. I realize the chapter may be more interested in issues with Internet safety, and that is great, but do we need any clarification from them about this? <br><br>Thanks!<br>Charles<div><br></div></div><br><div class="gmail_quote gmail_quote_container"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Thu, May 14, 2026 at 8:06 AM Kyle Shulman via Chapter-delegates <<a href="mailto:chapter-delegates@elists.isoc.org">chapter-delegates@elists.isoc.org</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex"><div class="msg243266964971417529">
