[NFBMO] HB2171

[Shelia Wright]

Perhaps we should get together before Monday to talk over a few things.
There are several bills we should educate ourselves about that are not on
our fact sheet. Whether we take a position or not, I think we want to be
aware of the bills that we may be asked about. I certainly don't like to be
caught off guard.

For Example: in addition to the H.R. 2171 there is senate bill 910 that is
very similar that Senator Sader introduced . Also there is H.B. 2328 to
repeal the blind employee waiver. We brought this to the attention of the
legislature two years ago.

WE may not be able to get everyone on the call but is we could get some of
us together, I think it would be worth if. 

Shelia

I am interested in this as well. Especially since both the representative
and senator who are sponsoring these two bills are assigned to the Jefferson
city chapter.

know in case someone were to ask us about it during Jeff City Seminar. I
don't want to do or say anything that would harm any blind pension
recipient.
