[il-talk] Federal Legislation update

[Marilyn Green]

Greetings federationists,

Thanks to all of your hardwork, Congressman Peter Roskam and Senator Tammy Duckworth have both officially co-sponsored HR 1734/S 732, Access Technology Affordability Act. It is important that we let these representatives know how thankful we are for their support of blind residents of Illinois. Please send an e-mail or call to say thanks. You can do one or both of the following:

You can contact Senator Duckworth and Rep. roskam by calling the Capitol Switchboard and asking for the office in question. The number is (202) 224-3121. 

You can e-mail David Applegate at Senator Duckworth's office, david_applegate at duckworth.senate.gov and Joe Fawell at Rep. Roskam's office, joe.fawell at mail.house.gov.

Let's go build the National Federation of the Blind...

Marilyn
