Hi, Mary and Everyone,
I'm glad your Passover holiday went well. I'll be celebrating Easter with a friend of mine. Her family lives far away, so we'll be together on Easter.
Take care, everyone, and have a wonderful week!
Esther

You will certainly be able to clearly state what the blind of Connecticut are looking for what with at least one House bill and one Senate bill on the topic. What you’ll say will be important in making that Senate bill, I think, even better. For example, electronic return is what we really want…
