If passed, it would take away blind citizens’ first right or option to operate a store or snack shop at a state park. Blind entrepreneurs have had this right in <st1:place w:st="on"><st1:State w:st="on">Connecticut</st1:State></st1:place> law since the 1940’s. House Bill 6654 was recently passed by the Environment Committee and is now heading to the state house floor in <st1:place w:st="on"><st1:City w:st="on">Hartford</st1:City></st1:place>. It will appear on the House Calendar tomorrow and will be eligible for voting by Thursday; it can be voted on any time after that.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></FONT></B></div>

Sec.10-303) that gives blind business people the first right to operate a retail or food concession on government properties. The bill would exclude state parks from this long-standing program. The Department of Rehabilitation Services (DORS) and its <st1:PersonName w:st="on">BESB</st1:PersonName> bureau strongly oppose this change to the law. It will put current blind operators out of business and take away that opportunity for future blind operators as well.
