> CALL TO ACTION - Cook County Coalition Against Beverage Taxes is a group of concerned citizens, businesses and community organizations actively opposing yet another tax on everyday grocery items like soft drinks, juice drinks, sports drinks, fountain drinks, coffee drinks and teas.
>
> Right now, Cook County Commissioners want a new tax on common beverages – up to a penny-per-ounce - to fix the budget problems they created. That’s an extra $1.44 on every 12-pack. This is in addition to the existing Chicago special tax on soft drinks! We don’t think county officials should fix their budget by taking more money from hard-working families and small businesses.
>
> That’s why we’re rallying folks like you to say NO to more beverage taxes. You are receiving this email because you signed up to learn more about how you can keep unfair beverage taxes from raising your grocery bill at checkout. For that, we thank you.
>
> But we’re just getting started. Contact your Cook County Commissioner from our new official Cook County Against Beverage Taxes campaign hub to urge that a new beverage tax be rejected.

> National Council on Disability Commends NHTSA Recommendations on Autonomous Vehicles Urges Continued Commitment to Universal Design in Research, Development and Regulation
>
> The National Council on Disability (NCD) commends the National Highway Transportation and Safety Administration (NHTSA) for its inclusion of people with disabilities in discussions leading to the release of its “Federal Autonomous Vehicle Policy” guidance on Tuesday, September 20.
>
> In its guidance, NHTSA acknowledged the importance of the disability community when it wrote, “...this Policy is the product of significant input from stakeholders across the spectrum of voices from the traveling public, traffic safety professionals, researchers, industry, government, the disabled community and others.”
>
> Of specific interest to the Council, NHTSA not only involved stakeholders with disabilities from the beginning of their inquiry, they also echoed recommendations made by NCD in their 2015 report “Self Driving Cars: Mapping Access to a Technology Revolution” which urged NHTSA not to impose limitations on people with disabilities through unnecessary licensure requirements to the extent possible, and to base any limitations on actual risk rather than unsubstantiated fears.
>
> “NCD is pleased that NHTSA has included disabled stakeholders from the earliest stages of the process and that several of NCD’s recommendations made in 2015 were adopted,” said NCD Chair Clyde Terry. “We are encouraged by NHTSA’s positive first steps and urge them to make good on their commitment to universal design for autonomous vehicles in their next version of this policy so millions of disabled people who can’t currently drive and have, until now, been left at the curb, will be able to utilize this technology to the fullest extent possible in keeping with the ADA’s goal of full participation in society.”
>
> As autonomous vehicle research and development, as well as policymaking moves forward, NCD will continue to collaborate with and advise NHTSA, Congress, and other federal partners to ensure that universal design and accessibility remain central and guiding themes in autonomous vehicles and other technological advances.

> About the National Council on Disability (NCD): First established as an advisory Council within the Department of Education in 1978, NCD became an independent federal agency in 1984. In 1986, NCD recommended enactment of an Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), and drafted the first version of the bill which was introduced in the House and Senate in 1988. Since enactment of the ADA in 1990, NCD has continued to play a leading role in crafting disability policy, and advising the President, Congress and other federal agencies on disability policies, programs, and practices.

> Re: Opposing H.R. 3765 the ADA Education and Reform Act of 2015
> Dear Representative:
> The National Federation of the Blind (NFB) opposes H.R. 3765. For seventy-six years, NFB members have fought for, and to protect, the rights of people with disabilities in the United States. In 1990, our members worked closely with our partners in the disability community and Congress to secure the passage of the Americans with Disabilities Act, (ADA). The ADA revolutionized the way we, as people with disabilities, interact with and access government services, commerce, and participate in our local communities. The passage of the ADA affirmed the principal that people with disabilities are first-class citizens, with rights and protections under the law, like all other Americans. However, H.R. 3765, the ADA Education and Reform Act of 2015 now threatens to undermine the mechanisms of the law that afford us those protections.
>
> Under the framework of H.R. 3765, a person with a disability confronting access barriers would be required to give a written notice to the business owner, who then has 60 days to even acknowledge the problem, followed by an additional 120 days to take corrective action. No other group is required to wait 180 days to enforce their civil rights.
>
> One of the “problems” proponents of H.R. 3765 refer to when talking about this legislation is that business-owners are unfairly being victimized by the accessibility requirements set forth by the ADA. However, this flawed approach neglects to recognize the daily experiences of millions of Americans with disabilities, who every day are discriminated against by public facilities and e-commerce that fail to meet even the most minimal accessibility requirements. Furthermore, the ADA was carefully crafted to ensure that such requirements are not overly burdensome, and our experience as Americans with disabilities has taught us that when included from the design and development stages, accessibility features do not result in increased construction and manufacturing costs. Proponents also argue that monetary incentives are behind most civil action under the ADA. However, title III of the Americans with Disabilities Act, which applies to privately operated public accommodations, commercial facilities, and private entities offering certain examinations and courses, prohibits money damages. A handful of states allow damages according to their state laws, and this bill will do nothing to prevent damage awards under state laws.
> Furthermore, this bill would force disabled Americans, who face wage, employment, and other forms of discrimination that can impact our financial resources, to pay attorneys to draft the notice. No attorney would take a case without the prospect of receiving payment for their work. That is why the drafters of the Americans with Disabilities Act included attorney’s fees; it is what makes the ADA function.
>
> Finally, there are a multitude of resources available to help small businesses comply with the ADA. However, there are very few resources available to help blind and other disabled Americans receive the
> equal access we need to live in society. This bill would severely limit one of the few tools we have at our disposal to ensure we are provided an equal opportunity to participate.
>
> Despite the major accomplishments of the Americans with Disabilities Act, people with disabilities continue to confront systemic accessibility barriers, and rather than exacerbating this experience, Congress should work to build upon the ADA’s progress to ensure that blind and all other disabled Americans can live the lives we want. H.R. 3765 will not be a step forward, but rather, a step back. I strongly urge you to vote nay on H.R. 3765.

> National Federation of the Blind Comments on Foundation Fighting Blindness #HowEyeSeeIt Campaign
>
>
> Baltimore, Maryland (September 26, 2016): The National Federation of the Blind commented today on the #HowEyeSeeIt challenge launched in the past month by the Foundation Fighting Blindness, which has garnered considerable recent publicity. The NFB has also delivered a letter to the Foundation Fighting Blindness, and NFB members are using the #HowEyeSeeIt hash tag to counter the campaign via social media.
>
> Mark A. Riccobono, President of the National Federation of the Blind, said: "The National Federation of the Blind is deeply concerned that the #HowEyeSeeIt challenge, as currently structured, will do lasting harm to the ability of millions of blind Americans to live the lives we want. In encouraging people who are not blind to don blindfolds and make videos of themselves attempting everyday tasks, this campaign perpetuates the fears, misconceptions, and low expectations that society has about blindness by giving those who take the challenge or view the videos an inaccurate understanding of the lived experience of blind people. In particular, suggesting that it is difficult or impossible for blind parents to care for their children is false and irresponsible. As a blind father of three children who also happens to be married to a blind person, I can say unequivocally that, with nonvisual techniques, we can, and do, capably parent thriving children every day. Yet children have been removed from the custody of blind parents solely because of misconceptions about their ability to care for them, without any actual proof of abuse or neglect, and the #HowEyeSeeIt campaign threatens to worsen this already grave problem. This is only one example of how this campaign will harm the chances of blind people, including board members and supporters of the Foundation Fighting Blindness, to live productive and happy lives.
>
> "To be clear, we have no quarrel with the Foundation Fighting Blindness or the medical research that it seeks to fund. However, we believe that this particular method of gathering support will harm the very people whom the Foundation Fighting Blindness and the National Federation of the Blind, in different but complementary ways, seek to help. I and other members of the National Federation of the Blind have told the Foundation Fighting Blindness that the perpetuation of misconceptions about, and by extension discrimination against, the blind is unacceptable, but so far we have been ignored. We therefore demand that the Foundation Fighting Blindness stop filling its coffers by spreading misconceptions and jeopardizing the dreams and aspirations of blind people."

> Dear Colleagues: Congress will be in session just a little while longer to complete its business before members return home for the 2016 political campaign. While still at the Capitol, members of Congress are in a position to cosponsor the TIME Act (H.R. 188 and S. 2001).
>
> We are asking you to make three phone calls: one to your House member and one to each of your two senators. The only senators who have sponsored this bill are Kelly Ayotte of New Hampshire and Michael Bennett of Colorado, which means that those of you in New Hampshire or Colorado will only need to call one senator. Everyone else should still call both of their senators.
>
> On the House side, there are already seventy-one supporters of this bill which are listed by state in the first attachment. You only need to call your representative if they do not appear on this list. If you are unsure of whom your members of Congress are, please contact Melissa Kroeger. She can be reached by phone at (410) 659-9314, extension 2207 or by email at mkroeger at nfb.org.
>
> You can also reach your member of Congress by calling the Capitol Switchboard at (202) 224-3121. When you call the Switchboard, you will be asked whether you are calling to speak to a House member or Senate member. When you select Senate, you will be asked your state and be provided with the names of your senators. When you select House of Representatives, you will be asked for your ZIP code and the system will then provide you with the name of your representative.
>
> Once connected, I suggest you say something such as: “Hi, my name is….and I am a constituent of Representative/Senator Last Name. I am calling to urge Representative/Senator Last Name to cosponsor H.R. 188/S. 2001, the TIME Act. This bill will help people like me and other people with disabilities compete equally in the workforce.
>
> If you have time, in addition to calling, it would also be useful to send an email to the legislative director of your senators and representative. You can obtain this person’s name and email address when making the call described above.
>
> Attached are four sample emails. (You can ask for these if interested please.) Two are directed towards senators and representatives from the Republican Party and two are directed towards senators and representatives from the Democratic Party. You will need to add the name of the legislative director and the last name of the representative or senator in the appropriate bracketed areas. Please be sure to review and customize the email template before sending it and CC Kimie Beverly on all correspondence. Kimie’s email is kbeverly at nfb.org.

> Fellow Federationists, I know we have been working on this issue for a long time, but the dialogue is clearly shifting in our favor. Let us continue the work until we enjoy the same protections under our nation's wage laws as all other Americans do.

> Online sale begins today at hadley.edu/holidaycard
>
> The Hadley Woman’s Board is pleased to announce the online sale of our 2016 Braille Holiday Cards and Gift Tags!
>
> In the Hadley tradition, the Holiday Card will carry the interior greeting “Wishing you peace, happiness and the spirit of the season” in both print and braille. The artwork features a watercolor and mixed-media collage depicting a quiet winter landscape of colorful, vintage-patterned paper trees, as tactile snowflakes fall from a blue winter sky. Each snowflake and a solitary tree are embossed. As a special touch, hidden in the snowflakes along the top of the card, the word “Peace” is spelled out in braille.
>
> Original artwork created by mixed-media artist Jennifer James, an award-winning artist and designer who joined Hadley’s communications department in 2014. Jennifer shows her work throughout the year at fine art festivals and exhibits in Chicago, and is honored to support Hadley’s mission to serve people living with visual impairment.

>
> This list, to include NAMA-member companies who are or will be issuing calories on the "front of pack," is designed to be a resource for vending operators as they prepare for FDA's Calorie Disclosure rule effective December 1, 2016.

> FDA Labeling Guidelines for Vending
> There has been a lot of speculation about what the recent updates mean and when they take effect, as a good partner (and fellow advocate of the Vending Industry) USAT is here to set the record straight.
>
> In an attempt to create greater consumer awareness about the nutritional content of the food we choose to eat, the FDA has updated national food labeling guidelines, some of these changes affect the vending industry, specifically the section titled: “Food Labeling: Calorie Labeling of Articles of Food in Vending Machines (codified at 21 CFR 101.8).
>
> The rule requires vending machine operators who own or operate 20 or more vending machines to declare calories for those items for which the Nutrition Fact label cannot be examined before purchase or for which visible nutrition information is not otherwise provided at the point of purchase (see section 403(q)(5)(H)(viii) of the FD&C Act)
>
> Key Points for operators: •The intent of the FDA regulation is to provide consumers with the caloric disclosure on or around the machine prior to making the vend purchase, for ALL products being sold.
> •The caloric disclosure MUST include the “total calories” being vended. This is different than “calories per serving” because certain consumer product companies label their products as “multiple servings” in the vend package thus misleading the consumer with the total calories in the vend package.
> •The caloric disclosure should be readily visible by the consumer while at the machine so that the consumer can see the information, the product in the machine, the price and the product selection - all at the same time.
> •The FDA is flexible on how the caloric disclosure is executed as long as the consumer can readily see the caloric information/product/price. Acceptable forms include: ◦On the Product itself – front or back of pack. Should the vend coil block the caloric information, the vend operator is not in compliance.
> ◦An electronic or digital display
> ◦Labels or stickers
>
> •Forms of disclosure that do NOT meet the FDA requirements include caloric information on a mobile app or information on the side of a vending machine which is not accessible to the consumer.
> •Vending companies are responsible for caloric disclosure – not the consumer product companies
> Vending Industry Compliance Dates
> The compliance dates for ALL vending machines (including both glass-front and non-glass-front machines) is DECEMBER 2016.
>
> There is one (1) exception to this compliance date for Glass-front Machines, if and only if the vending company displays the caloric disclosure, from either front or back of pack, on all products in their vending machines, but the “font size” on the product does not meet the FDA requirements. This compliance has been extended to April of 2018 only for those glass-front machines that meet these requirements.
>
> How can USAT help you stay ahead of these changes:
> USAT’s new ePort Interactive hardware can provide the nutritional disclosure required by the FDA. Better yet, as the industry's most advanced, touchscreen, cloud based, interactive media, and content delivery platform is supported by USAT's industry leading ePort Connect service (a PCI compliant, end-to-end, suite of cashless payment, telemetry and value-added services) the new interactive technology does a lot more than simply help your operation stay compliant.
>
> ePort Interactive's features that can help keep you ahead of the regulations (and the competition): •Seamless Nutritional Integration with most major VMS programs
> •Automatic Refund/Revend programs available
> •Interactive, Cloud Based Advertising Platform
> •MORE (Loyalty) compliant
> •Credit/Debit and Mobile Wallet acceptance

> Reverse sales tax calculator
> Click the link below to go to a site that will help you calculate sales tax in reverse. If you run a convenience store, micromarket or retail site you already understand what I mean. For those who do not here is an example:
>
> If your end selling price is to be $1.75 what is the formula for calculating the pre-tax selling price? On this webpage you do not have to know it you simply type in the ZIP Code enter the tax included selling price and boom! you get your pretax selling price. This will be particularly useful for those folks on Cook County retail establishments adhering to standardized selling prices.
>
> By the way in ZIP Code 60604 Chicago the selling price would be $1.61 at 10.25% sales tax thus yielding a $1.75 retail selling price. For every one of us remember your cost of goods is figured on your net selling price so that means for all of us inventing as well the selling price is $1.61 if you were in ZIP Code 60604. That means you would like your item (let's say pop) to cost you $.80 or less to hit a cost of goods of 50% or less. Happy happy joy joy and happy selling!

> Changes to Frito Lay Program:
> Effective in the 4th quarter, Frito removed the RSA by state requirement hoping it will be easier for everyone to earn their rebate dollars. Now it’s completely up to you whether you earn Frito rebates or not.
> You must meet all 3 components of the program to earn a rebate.
> 1. Each member must purchase 1 NEWS item per quarter.
> Frito ensures us that Vistar will have the products in stock nationwide. Please let us know if you have a problem getting the product from your distributor.
> 4th quarter NEWS items:
> 1.5 oz LSS Lay’s Potato Chips Biscuits and Gravy
> 1.5 oz LSS Sunchips WG Veggie Harvest Tomato Basil and Cheese
> Order now to get 4 cents per unit off invoice for NEWS items delivered through October 31.
>
> 2. Maintain a 50% or more core mix of products.
> Core products are basically all the signature Frito products that everyone carries like Doritos, Lay’s and Cheetos. This is a very easy criterion to meet unless you have a large number of accounts that adhere to certain health guidelines. If you do, please let us know.
>
> 3. Sales must be at least 98% or more of the prior year’s quarter.
>
> If you meet all 3 elements of the program your rebates will be:

> 4% - For sales that are 100-102.9% of prior year’s quarter.

> Did you know you can earn additional Pepsi rebates by providing us with market share information? Did you also know that Pepsi has annual programs that can earn you even more money? Pepsi has 4 ways to earn rebates.
>
> 1. Elite Program
> Right now, if your quarterly Pepsi sales are at least 75% of last year’s sales and you buy 5 cases of Pepsi Innovation* products per quarter; you receive a $0.40 per case rebate. (If you choose not to buy the quarterly Pepsi Innovation products, you receive a $0.30 per case rebate.)
>
> 2. Market Share Program
> Additionally, if your Pepsi market share is over 60%, you will receive an additional $0.20 per case plus 1 cent for each additional percent. (For example, if your Pepsi market share is 75%, you will receive a rebate of $0.75 per case, instead of the $0.40 per case you get now.)
>
> If you think you qualify for the 60% share program for the 3rd quarter, get a quarterly recap from Coke and any independent Pepsi or DPSG Bottler that don’t report now, and FAX it to 631-209-5036, or email the report to me or Pat at pskidmore at rsamanagementgroup.com <mailto:pskidmore at rsamanagementgroup.com> by October 20.
>
> 3. Annual Incentive Program – Tracked and paid once a year
> If your Pepsi market share is over 60% and that market share is larger than last year’s, Pepsi will give you an additional $0.02 per case rebate on all your purchases for the entire year. (For example, last year Pepsi had 67% of your total market and this year Pepsi is 75%. 8% higher times 2 cents means you will earn an additional $0.16 rebate on ALL your cases!)
>
>
> 4. Annual Case Growth over Previous Year
> You can also earn annual case growth rebates whether you participate in Pepsi’s Market share program or not.
>
> Grow 0. 5% to 4.9% and earn a $0.75 rebate on growth cases
