Dear Kathy,
  I replied to the form via your request.  We must not lose our blind
enterprise military job placements.

					Cordially Yours,

few seconds of your time. The Department of Defense is promulgating rules
that will effectively eliminate the Randolph-Sheppard priority for troop
dining contracts on military bases. 40+ blind vendors will lose their jobs
and future opportunities will be lost forever. Vendors in states that depend
on set aside from these contracts will face significant increases in set
aside fees and/or the elimination or reduction in fringe benefits. We cannot
let this happen.  Let your voice be heard. Submit a comment today.
