<h1><span style="font-family: calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 24pt; color:black;">Urge the House to Pass the Medical Device Nonvisual Accessibility Act</span></h1>
<p><span style="font-family: calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt; color:black;">The National Federation of the Blind urges the House to pass the Medical Device Nonvisual Accessibility Act, H.R. 5605. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt; color:black;">This bill was just introduced on Friday, September 26, and will require Class II and Class III medical devices (such as glucose monitors, insulin pumps, CPAP machines, etc.) with digital user interfaces to meet a designated nonvisual accessibility standard ensuring that blind Americans are able to safely and independently administer our in-home medical care.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 14pt; color:black;">We ask that you call or email your Representative and ask them to cosponsor the Medical Device Nonvisual Accessibility Act. </span></p>
