[sharon_newton]

Hello Everyone!

Rose Sloan, who heads up TIME (H.R. 188) at National, sent us the following email.  It is a very easy way to make a difference.    Please read an act accordingly.  If you have questions please call me (704-334-8758).    Do it NOW, don't wait until July 28!  Together, we will make this happen!

Gratefully,


Sharon Newton
NC Legislative Coordinator

Rose's email:

As you all know, the Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act established an advisory committee to examine how we can increase integrated and competitive employment for individuals with disabilities. During national convention, Dr. Schroeder and I reported that the committee is currently formulating their recommendations. The responsible phase-out of Section 14(c) must be one of the committee's top recommendations, but it will only happen if we make our voices heard.

There are two ways to contact the committee. The easiest way is to go to www.nfb.org/ice. Here, simply fill out the form, and a pre-drafted email will be automatically sent to the committee. Alternatively, you can email integratedcompetitiveemployment at dol.gov. 
The comment deadline is Tuesday, July 28. Other groups have already gotten underway, so let's make sure the Federation has the largest and most powerful blitz!

Thank you all for your help!

Yours in the fight for fair wages,

Rose
