He just responded "You are correct sir. Our website is geared toward the vast majority of users." The webmaster's political masters need to know that. I think they'd be very interested.
That is the route to take. You need to contact your local Congress person and make a stink. A Government site is made FOR the people and should be accessible by ALL web browsers using standards compliant code.

Not that it matters one bit since all sites should be standards compliant, but the latest browser usage reports I have show Firefox owning 33% of the market share. It's simply idiotic to cut over 1/3 of your visitors out of the equation from the get go.
