One of the most basic is to facilitate employment for disabled persons in the state. For the visuall-impaired, like myself, the unemployment rate averages 70%even in good economic times. I was fortunate to secure a new job last year and the TD Tampa Bay service was vital to me fullfilling the requirements of my job to travel to various counties. Employment and transportation are two of the most vital needs for the disabled and TD Tampa Bay allows us to solve these two problems. Please continue to fund this essential program. It means positive economic impact for the state and financial and personal independence for the disabled.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Regards,<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Deon<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>G.
