[IABS-Talk] NFB Convention and Resolutions

[chicago.president at nfbofillinois.org]

Hello All,

Convention is four days away. Whether you are joining virtually or in
person, I hope everyone has a great convention. I know we have a lot of new
members, and I just want to share an important matter about the NFB
convention.

The reason for referring to the NFB convention as a convention and not a
conference, is because we the members of the National Federation of the
Blind will pass resolutions and elect our leaders.

I serve on the resolutions committee and I urge everyone to review the 2025
proposed resolutions, which can be found at www.nfb.org/resolution
<http://www.nfb.org/resolution> . If passed, resolutions become the policy
of our organization. The resolutions committee meets on July 9 at 1 PM and
those that pass from the committee will come to the floor on July 12 for a
vote. We will review the resolutions from the committee during the Illinois
caucus on July 10.
