The PSAI Board of Directors voted to make this change at its November 2019 meeting in Houston. Association Insight feedback has been highly positive, and Members rank it as one of our most valuable member benefits. At the same time, however, Members have suggested that a weekly newsletter makes it hard to read all that's in each issue. Several have suggested that bi-weekly or monthly issues would be better.
