[Colorado-talk] ALERT, ALERT, ALERT, ALERT!!!! NFB VOTING RIGHTS BILL ON THE MOVE!!!!!

[KEVAN at NFBCO.ORG]

Yes! You should go ahead and contact your own state senator and state
representative. Ask them to support SB19-202 - Voting for Voters with
Disabilities.

You can urge chapter members to do this as well. Do it anytime in the next
week or so. We will let you know if it fails to get out of committee.
