[MN-at-Large] A Delightful Surprise

[David Andrews]

>Fellow Federationists,

>I was set to write you an email all about how the Access Technology 
>Affordability Act, a piece of legislation that, if passed, would 
>make it easier for blind people to get access to assistive 
>technology, has been included in the house reconciliation bill, 
>meaning it stands a good chance of passing there. I was also going 
>to write you about how we need to make sure this bill passes in the 
>senate, so we need to contact our senators to make sure they both 
>sign onto the bill. I was going to tell you that Senator Tina Smith 
>has already signed onto the Senate version of the bill, and I was 
>going to ask you to contact Senator Amy Klobuchar to make sure she 
>signs on as well. But now I'm not going to do any of that, because I 
>just received some excellent news from our national office.
>
>Senator Amy Klobuchar is now a co-sponsor on the Access Technology 
>Affordability Act in the Senate! Both Minnesota senators are signed on!
>
>Thank you to everyone who sent emails, made phone calls, and 
>participated in the Washington Seminar. This is a fun accomplishment 
>to be able to cheer about, and I'm honored to share it with you. If 
>you're bummed you don't get to make a phone call, though, I 
>encourage you to contact Senator Klobuchar's office and thank her 
>for signing on. Her number is (202) 224-3244.

>Warmly,
