[Nfbmo] TEACH Act

[Gary Wunder]

This is from our affiliate President in Massachusetts. It is quite good. I
find it frustrating that this group can simply say that they object to these
provisions without having to justify their objections or talk with us about
them. Thanks for sending this along, Julie.

Subject: [Nfbmo] TEACH Act

Good morning friends,

At the board meeting this weekend, we had a discussion of the TEACH Act.  We
talked about a couple articles that had been circulating related to the
opposition to the bill.  Today I read another one and thought others may be
interested.

I see inaccessible technology every day both as a part of my job and because
I'm a student.  Disability services offices, Adaptive Technology centers
(which many universities do not have), and even the universities themselves
can only do so much.  This is very important!
