Not a bad idea at all, but I think many of us did just that by writing to the FAA and our local politicians this year and last. The partnering and education process has already started :

Remember this?
That didn't just happen by accident.
But....it doesn't and shouldn't stop there. In addition to the work done by the AMA at the national level, your local AMA leadership AND clubs can really make a big difference here. Does your club embrace multi-rotors? Do you have events where they will fly? Contact your local papers and invite some reporters out to do a story on them. Some of the smaller papers are always looking for a good story that deals with current issues, why not make it this one? Even some of the larger papers have an interest, worse case they say no. You might get an intern to come out and get some basic details, or you might get a full time reporter eager for a different twist on the subject. Who knows until you try. Get with your local/regional AMA, or even headquarters to help if needed.
