[michelleandremy at gmail.com]

Hello Everyone,

 

Please see legislative alert from national below.  In Pennsylvania we
currently have 3 cosponsors in the house Mike Kelly, Glenn Thompson, and
Brian Fitzpatrick.  We don't have any cosponsors in the Senate.  Please
email or call your representatives and Senators.  The sample notes are on
the webpage.  Please ask if you need assistance or have any questions.
Thank you.

 

Michelle

Urge the House and Senate to Pass the Access Technology Affordability Act


The National Federation of the Blind urges both the House and Senate to pass
the Access Technology Affordability Act, H.R. 1529/S. 1918. This bill will
help blind Americans afford the high cost of qualified access technology by
creating a refundable tax credit of $2,000 for use over a three-year period.


Since 2017, we have been working to get a tax credit for the purchase of
qualified access technology for the blind passed into law. We believe that
this would help blind Americans to better handle the high cost of access
technology that we need in order to be able to search for, apply for, and
maintain steady and fulfilling employment.

We are hoping that a large surge of cosponsor support at the end of 2025
will give the bill a significant amount of momentum to start 2026, but we
need your help to spread that message of independence and savings to all
members of Congress who have not yet signed on to the bill. 

We are asking that you call or email both of your Senators and your
Representative and ask them to cosponsor the Access Technology Affordability
Act.
