We need you!  If you would like to participate in Maryland's Washington
Seminar congressional meetings on Wednesday, February 9, 2022, please let me
know by February 5, 2022.  All meetings will be virtual.

 

On February 7, Maryland will virtually join Federationists from throughout
the country at the Great Gathering In - Information on how to join is on the
Washington Seminar web page and will be shared as we get closer to Monday. 

 

We will have a busy Washington Seminar, where we will educate our elected
Federal representatives on the legislative priorities of the blind.  The
four issues that we will discuss are: 

*	Access Technology Affordability Act - HR 431 / S 212
*	Medical Device Nonvisual Accessibility Act - HR 4853
*	21st Century Mobile Apps and Website Accessibility Act
*	Transformation to Competitive Integrated Employment Act - HR 2373 /
S 3238

Pronouns: she, her, hers

 

The National Federation of the Blind of Maryland 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.
