[NFB-Idaho] FW: ICBVI and IBESDB on Legislature list to Combine or Eliminate

[mike.gibson71 at gmail.com]

Yiska,

There is a linked pdf document in the article which lists 70 possible changes. I had sent the pdf file to Dana as an attachment. 

For everyone here is the link to the document.

Cheers,

Mike

I read through this article and blindness and other disabilities were not in the list mostly environmental and agriculture committees.
