[nagdu] Law Regarding Attacks on Service Dogs

[National Association of Guide Dog Users]

Passle,
	I will be in Baltimore/D.C. during the week of April 7 to attend the
Service Animal Relief Area forum on April 10. As the Co-Chair of the Policy
& Law Committee of the Human Services Division, I am also planning to meet
with the NASW & ASWB while there, so my calendar is filling up quickly with
NFB responsibilities. If I can find the time, I would like to meet with
those interested in sponsoring such a bill, so please send me their contact
information. I won't make any promises, but I will do my very best to meet
with them!

Fraternally yours,
Marion

Thank you.  I have e mailed and talked to Ginger and Marion.  Marion told me
to call he when I have a Bill number.  No one told me to contact John Pare
or you.  I have been working on this since the service dog law was passed in
PA.  I am working to admen PA service dog law to include interference too.


Thank you,

Passle
