[Nd-talk] Urgent Action Needed - H.R. 620

[Milton Ota]

Colleagues,

Some resources that might be helpful to us today:

Below is a link to this evening's testimony on the ADA Education and Reform
Act before the House Committee on Rules which sets the parameters for the
floor debate on the Bill. That link is followed by other resources 

 

Even if nothing else you've read has; I am pretty sure this testimony will
inspire you to contact your Representative and Senator.  You can do so at

https://www.usa.gov/elected-officials. 

 

Video

HR 620 testimony is half way into the video (5:52pm on the clock or at
minute 052 on the counter)

Text of Bill, Judiciary Committee report, and offered amendments are at: our

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. THE NATIONAL FEDERATION OF THE BLIND IS NOT AN ORGANIZATION
SPEAKING FOR THE BLIND--IT IS THE BLIND SPEAKING FOR OURSELVES.

 

With Love, Hope and Determination, We Turn Dreams Into Reality.

 

Together We Change What It Means to Be Blind.
