I wanted to know the following informatio becasue President Obama is coming to Hartford on Wednesday to meet with the Govonor,senators and others t ospeak about the minium wage increase as taht CT is doing it over 3 years. What if anything do you know
if disabled person will benefit from this action as well. We've been battling the change and discrimination of employers such as Goodwill, Marriott,etc and the bill that the senate have been hearing is H R 831 has this bill fully gone int oeffect/passed by
teh senate whic his for subminium fair wages but does it as well enact/protect from discrimination.<br>
<br>
Have Senators Murphy and blumenthal been supportative,vocal,effective in our behalf for these issues . What would you want them to know to have in hand when they are with the Govonor on Wednesday with teh President.<br>
<br>
With the case of Goodwill who were not paying fairly do you know exactly know the numbers of what they were doing being if minium wage here is 720/40 how much under that were the ydoing if you know.<br>
<br>
Thank you so much for assisting me with providing me wit hthis information which will help us all.<br>

Dear Elizabeth,<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
I am sincerely grateful for your interest in the fight to end subminimum wages. I have read your message a few times but am struggling to understand what it is that you want to know. Honestly, the abundance of typographical errors would not be much of
a problem if they did not erode the clarity of the message, but I regret to report that they do. If you could please edit and resend your message, I would be happy to help answer your questions.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
I also wish to remind you and others that Edward Shaham has taken over for me to spearhead our legislative activities. While I am happy to offer any help that I can, Edward’s understanding of and ability to research these issues should not be underestimated.
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
Lastly, I want to encourage you to feel comfortable reaching out to Rose Sloan at our national office. She is the one leading our efforts to achieve fair wages by fixing the Workforce Investment Act and also getting the House to pass HR 831 and the Senate
to introduce and pass a companion bill to HR 831. It is certainly good to use our resources here in Connecticut, but helping people understand this issue is part of why we pay her the big bucks. Her phone number is: 410-659-9314, ext. 2441. You can also
email Rose at <a href="mailto:rsloan@nfb.org">rsloan@nfb.org</a>.<br>

Sincerely yours,<br>

Please note the reminder from our education team a the NFB Jernigan Institute:<br>

Just a quick reminder that Monday is Read Across America Day! This celebration of literacy always takes place on the weekday closest to Dr. Seuss's birthday, March 2, since his writings continue to inspire children to fall in love with reading. Once
again, we ask that you celebrate the day anyway you can to emphasize the important role of Braille in literacy for the blind. If your affiliate is holding a party or activity in honor of Read Across America Day, please let us know! We'd love to get photos
or videos of your celebration. We're also asking that everyone send us a photo or video of someone reading Braille. We're especially eager to see people reading Braille near a famous landmark, so we can really show that Braille is being used all across the
country! (Of course, we understand that in many parts of the country, those landmarks are obscured by snow!)
