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.

 Denise R. Avant, President
National Federation of the Blind of Illinois

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.
