[MD-AtLarge] Last batch of letters needed

[nfbmd]

Hello all,

 

We are reaching the home stretch.  If anyone can come to the Senate scooter
hearing on Wednesday, March 11 please call 410-715-9596.  We need to get a
big crowd for this, because last year we lost the bill because this
committee took too long to send it to the floor.  If they see a big crowd,
they may act more quickly this time.

 

We need letters quickly for the Senate scooter bill because the hearing is
on March 11.  SB 757 will require scooter ride-sharing companies to provide
nonvisual access to scooter information.  Companies must provide tactile
contact information on each scooter.  They must also keep their websites and
phone apps accessible so that we can report problems and communicate with
the companies.

 

You may send letters by email or by regular postage.  The email address is: 

first name.last name at senate.state.md.us <mailto:name at senate.state.md.us> .
The postal address is:  11 Bladen Street, Annapolis, Maryland  21401.   I
will provide the room number and building name next to the person's name.
Everyone should write to the chairman of the committee, Senator Delores
Kelley, Chairman of the Finance Committee, Miller Senate Office Building,
Room 3E.  Below is the list of senators.

 

If you live in Anne Arundel County, write to 

Pamela Beidle, 202 James

Edward Reilly, 316 James

Antonio Hayes, 222 James

The National Federation of the Blind of Maryland 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.
