I support the VSPE's justification for opposition of this proposed modification:

The rigors of the International Engineering Alliance are suspect and not governed by any US oversight; whereas VSPE has great confidence in NCEES Records and Model Law Engineer standards and practices. VSPE’s proposed re-write of Section 270 provides for a streamlined and well governed process to augment PE licensure across the US by eliminating International Endorsement and adding clear eligibility requirements to protect the life, health, safety, and welfare of the Commonwealth’s citizens, environment and infrastructure through support of the NCEES Records Program that is designed for currently licensed engineers and surveyors to complete the licensure process in multiple jurisdictions, including all 50 states, the District of Columbia, Guam, Puerto Rico, Northern Mariana Islands, and the U.S. Virgin Islands.
