[MD-AtLarge] Two Important Reminders

[nfbmd]

Hello All, 
Since we did not get any cosponsors in May, we must call all of our
congressional representatives again, by June 9. Ask them to cosponsor
Accessible Instructional Material in Higher Education Act (AIMHE HIGH), H.R.
1772; Access Technology Affordability Act of 2017, H.R. 1734; Transitioning
to Integrated and Meaningful Employment Act of 2017, H.R. 1377. Everyone
should also call Senator Van Hollen and ask him to cosponsor Access
Technology Affordability Act of 2017, S. 732. Remember the switchboard
number is 202-224-3121. Be sure to give your address. 
 
Planning to travel this summer? If you have a service animal and use Uber or
Lyft to get around on vacation, be sure to fill out our questionnaire by
going to https://nfb.org/rideshare-test. Every time you take a trip with
Uber or Lyft you should fill out this questionnaire. You can do it in ten
minutes or less. Please spread the word to anyone you know who uses a
service animal. Many thanks for all your efforts. Let's get cosponsors and
lots of questionnaires.

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.
