[Charlotte-Mecklenburg-Chapter] legislation

Websites and Software Applications Accessibility Act
Websites are required by law to be accessible, but without implementing regulations most businesses and retailers have little understanding of what accessible
means. The Websites and Software Applications Accessibility Act will end website and software application inaccessibility for blind Americans.
Medical Device Nonvisual Accessibility Act
Inaccessible digital interfaces prevent blind individuals from independently and safely operating medical devices that are essential to their daily healthcare
needs. The Medical Device Nonvisual Accessibility Act will end unequal access to medical devices for blind Americans.
Blind Americans Return to Work Act
Current Social Security law contains a policy that has the unintended consequence of discouraging blind Americans from maximizing their earnings potential.
The Blind Americans Return to Work Act will eliminate the Social Security Disability Insurance earnings cliff and create a true work incentive for blind
Americans.
These priorities will remove obstacles to website access, independent living, and maximizing earning potential.
We urge congress to support our legislative initiatives.

The happiest people don't have the best of everything - they just make
The best of everything they have... So please remember: Live simply.
Love generously. Care Deeply. Speak Kindly. Leave the Rest to God.

And remember - the richest person is not the one who has the most, but
The one who needs the least.
