[Nfb-hi] HEARING MONDAY - We Must Stop HB 646!

[Nanifife]

Aloha All,
Today is decision making day for the handicapped parking passes bill. 
Mahalo Justin for all your hard work. I must complement you on your motivation and 
Belief to change what it means to be blind.
Also, thanks for all of you who gave up your time to go to the state capital.
Nani Fife, President NFB of Hawaii

Let’s all make one final push with phone calls in opposition to this bill, thanking them for their time and attention with yesterday’s public hearing. Below my signature, please find the list of names and phone numbers. If you want to visit their offices, that’s great, too. The decision-making meetings will be held tomorrow, Wednesday, at around 3 pm, and I will send out a follow-up message about those tonight as I get more information.
