[Nd-talk] This affects all of us Re: FW: [NFB-Legislative-Directors] Petition RE: H.R. 620

[Jesse Shirek]

Please read the change.org petition. The house of representatives is considering making drastic changes to the Americans with disabilities act that could significantly affect our lives. Please consider signing the petition.
I wanted to give you some more information about this link that Milton sent out yesterday. I have signed the petition and believe strongly that we need to share this and make sure that this bill is squashed. .
Thanks!

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.
