No communications problems at all. It got set aside by me when I was dealing with Amy Sherman.

Oh, and it’s sign off. Not sit off.

No, this is the first time I'm seeing this. The process is that you are supposed to send to me for approval when you get these requests from Comms.
Are you having a problem in communicating with them?

Media Conference Call

I want to make sure you received this. We need your sit off.

Comms is planning a conference call with media tomorrow during the 1 pm hour.

The subject is the state of the race after the latest primary contests more generally. More importantly, ahead of Thursday’s Trump-Ryan meeting on Capitol Hill, explaining the difference between our side and their side, and making the GOP
own the Trump circus. Discussion on the historic nature of the mess that is the current Republican Party, especially that Ryan is the first Speaker of the House to question whether he’s supporting his party’s nominee. Others in the GOP have also backed away
from their party’s presumptive nominee.  At the same time, Democrats remain united in their efforts to defeat Trump.
