<p class="MsoNormal"><br>Federationists: <br> <br>For those of you who prefer to call your Senators (rather than send an email or fax) here is a sample message you can leave. <br> <br>#####<br> <br>Hi! My name is Rose Sloan, and I am a constituent of Senator Durbin. I am calling to express my objection to language in S. 1356, the Workforce Investment Act. Please ask the Senator to offer an amendment that will strike Section 511 of Title V., which endorses segregated subminimum wage training and employment, and to remove the language that diminishes the quality of rehabilitation services by transferring the Rehabilitation Services Administration from the Department of Education to the Department of Labor. Thank you! <br>
<br>#####<br> <br>Some of you may have the chance to talk to staffers in your senators’ offices in more depth. To learn more information about fixing WIA, please review our blog post at <a href="https://nfb.org/blog/vonb-blog/fix-wia" target="_blank">https://nfb.org/blog/vonb-blog/fix-wia</a>. <br>
