As of today, Friday, October 13, I still receive none of the messages from NFB mailing lists I regularly received until September 18.  Who to contact and what to do?

Colleagues: 

The United States Senate Special Committee on Aging will be conducting a hearing regarding accessible technology for people with disabilities, older adults, and veterans on Thursday, September 21 at 10:30 a.m. Our very own Ronza Othman will be testifying on behalf of the National Federation of the Blind. Along with serving as the President of the National Federation of the Blind of Maryland, Ronza is the President of our National Association of Blind Government Employees and her testimony will address many of the accessibility issues faced by blind and low vision government workers. The hearing will take place in the Dirksen Senate Office Building in Washington, D.C., room SD-106, or can be viewed virtually at  <https://www.aging.senate.gov/hearings/unlocking-the-virtual-front-door-ensuring-accessible-government-technology-for-people-with-disabilities-older-adults-and-veterans> Unlocking the Virtual Front Door: Ensuri... | Senate Committee On Aging. The hearing is open to the public and we want to fill the room with as many Federationists as possible. We will be providing round-trip transportation to the hearing from the Jernigan Institute.
