From: Dennis Russak, Subject: Congratulations!
Great job, Lisa, and congratulations to you and all of our San Diego Chapter's newly elected board, including yourself, of course. I've been a member of this Federation since the last Tuesday in September, 1978, when I first joined in Evansville, Indiana, and, to my knowledge, you guys down there are the first chapter I've seen to accomplish so much even before becoming an official chapter! So, congratulations to every last one of you guys there. you will make a great President, Lisa, and I know we're all behind you.

> NEWS FLASH — Be on the lookout for a new revamped TSA.GOV Travelers with
> Disabilities and Medical Conditions website. While the new website is under
> construction the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) Disability
> Branch is working on a new Disability and Medical Condition Awareness Series
> Initiative. Each month TSA's Disability Branch will focus on a Disability
> or Medical Condition Awareness Month theme based on identification of
> disability and medical condition-related awareness days or months in the
> calendar year. TSA Disability Branch will develop a "What to Expect"
> publication that provides general information about what to expect in the
> security screening process if you are an individual with a disability or
> medical condition. The publications will also include sections on "What to
> Know" and "What to Remember". The intent of the publications is to help
> travelers make better informed decisions.
>
> Stay tuned on the overhaul of the external Web site. We will continue to
> develop our external awareness pieces each month. This way they will be
> ready for posting when the Web site opens again.
