This Friday, February 28th, the Georgia State Board of Elections will be
hosting a public hearing related to its proposed rule on Assistive
Technology Devices (SEB Rule 183-1-13-.02) in Atlanta. If you would like to
share an oral statement (up to 3 minutes), you can do so by showing up in
person and signing up to speak. You can also submit your own (short)

that the state should do more to open up access for voters with

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.
