> Hi Legislative Directors,
>  
> This is a heads up to let you know that the name of our “fair wages” bill has changed to the Transitioning to Integrated and Meaningful Employment Act, or TIME Act.  The language of the bill is exactly the same as the Fair Wages for People with Disabilities Act with the exception of the title.  Please see my latest blog post at https://nfb.org/blog/vonb-blog/time-act-transitioning-integrated-and-meaningful-employment-act <https://nfb.org/blog/vonb-blog/time-act-transitioning-integrated-and-meaningful-employment-act> to learn more.

> The National Federation of the Blind knows that blindness is not the characteristic that defines you or your future. Every day we raise the expectations of blind people, because low expectations create obstacles between blind people and our dreams. You can live the life you want; blindness is not what holds you back.
