[Shelia Wright]

I am sending this to the list as some of you will want to send an email concerning the Access Technology Affordable Act (S. 732). Below is an email with the appropriate contact and a sample letter. Please copy Kimmie as she may be able to meet with Senator Blunt’s office.

Thanks,

Shelia

Subject: ATAA (S. 732) and Senator Blunt

 

Good Afternoon Sheila:

 

I hope this message finds you well. As you know, we are moving towards the final stretch in tax reform but we are not out of the game yet. Can you please ask your members to contact Senator Blunt’s tax staffer (contact information below) and ask Blunt’s office to join his colleague Senator Boozman in supporting the Access Technology Affordability Act (S. 732)? 

 

Staffer: Tracy_Henke at blunt.senate.gov <mailto:Tracy_Henke at blunt.senate.gov> 

 

Your message may say something like:

 

Dear Tracy:

 

I am a member of the National Federation of the Blind of Missouri and a constituent of Senator Blunt. Please join Senator Boozman and co-sponsor the Access Technology Affordability Act (S.732), a bill that will give blind Americans the tools/devices they need use conventional technology necessary to be successful in school and at work. With an unemployment rate of 60%, we are hoping that your office will support this initiative to give blind Americans the tools they need to become part of the workforce.

 

Sincerely,

MEMBER’S NAME 

 

Kimie Beverly
