[Iabs-talk] Marrakesh Treaty Implementation Act S2559 - Follow-up

[davant1958 at gmail.com]

Hello all,
I called Senator Durbin's office (202)-224-2152, and asked that he support S2559. I was told by Chase that my message would be passed along to Senator Durbin.
I then called Senator Duckworth, (202)-224-2854, and requested her support for S2559. I spoke with Shanise, who said the message would be passed along.
Please call our senators and ask them to support the Marrakesh Implementation Act.
Thanks everyone.

I just called Senator Duckworth’s office and asked her to cosponsor Marrakesh. I explained how this legislation would benefit blind people. I also requested an email response.
