<DIV><B>Subject:</B> NFBNJ call to action: Access Technology Affordability
Act
cosponsorship</DIV></DIV></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>**** </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Greetings, my fellow New Jersey Federationists,</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Our national Governmental Affairs Director John Pare sent out a
legislative</DIV>
<DIV>alert concerning the Access Technology Affordability Act. In that
notice,
he</DIV>
<DIV>listed the current cosponsors of HR1734 in the House of Representatives
and</DIV>
<DIV>S732 in the Senate. To make a long story short, none of these
cosponsors
are</DIV>
<DIV>from the Garden State. I am strongly urging all of us in NFBNJ to call
your</DIV>
<DIV>member of the House and both Senators Booker and Menendez and ask them
to</DIV>
<DIV>sign onto this legislation. To reach them, you can call the
Capitol</DIV>
<DIV>Switchboard at (202) 224-3121 or their individual office numbers if
you</DIV>
<DIV>already know them.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>**** </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>This bill would allow a blind person to receive a tax credit of up to
$2,500</DIV>
<DIV>over a three-year period when purchasing access technology, and NFB
is</DIV>
<DIV>making a push to get it passed, so please make the calls!</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Thanks and take care,</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV> Ryan</DIV>
