Make the Metric system, SI units, the official measurement system of the United States.

Created by C.H. on August 16, 2013

Urge President Obama to use Executive powers, or pressure Congress to introduce legislation, that would make the SI, or Metric system, the only legally acceptable form of measurements for: Commerce, Education, Industry, Government, Transportation, Science, Law, Medicine, Trade, and all other foreseeable instances in which quantitative measurement must be taken.

Without such efforts, we cannot attain full competitiveness in scientific, economic, nor any other high-tech field.

Limited knowledge of the metric system amongst the US population makes fields which require the use of SI units less accessible to the population as a whole.
