I would be more than happy to sign the petition; however, the provided link
does not seem to work.

Howdy Students,

Happy new year! As you gear up for another semester, take some time to urge
the Obama administration to promptly release the ADA internet regulations.
As students, you know first-hand the detrimental effects of inaccessible
websites, online platforms, etc. The Obama administration has the
opportunity to make a historic difference for people with disabilities, but
they are refusing to act. Sidelining these important regulations is not only
irresponsible, it undermines President Obama's commitment to civil rights
and equality of opportunity for all Americans.

Please take a moment to sign our we the people
petition<https://petitions.whitehouse.gov/petition/direct-us-department-just
ice-promptly-release-ada-internet-regulations>, and encourage your 
ice-promptly-release-ada-internet-regulations>fellow
students, friends, family members, and coworkers to do the same. Reaching
100,000 signatures is no small task, but I know that NABSters are energized,
enthusiastic, and passionate about securing equal access to online content.
In addition to sharing our
petition<https://petitions.whitehouse.gov/petition/direct-us-department-just
ice-promptly-release-ada-internet-regulations> on Facebook, Twitter, and
other social media outlets, please personally approach 10
friends/relatives/coworkers and ask them to sign and share with their own
networks. A little personal contact goes a long way! At the time of the
drafting of this Email, we are sitting at 539 signatures: look what we have
done in just a little over 24 hours! Let's make it to 1000 today, with your
help, I know we can!
If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out. I can't wait to
see many of you in D.C. in a few weeks!
Talk soon,

...Gabe

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.
