[NFBV-Announce] Update on ATAA Build Back Better Act

Dear Legislative Directors:

 

A new version of the Build Back Better Act (H.R. 5376) was released earlier
today. Unfortunately, the Access Technology Affordability Act was not
restored to the bill. We anticipate the House will move quickly to pass this
version of the bill. Even if this happens, there is still a possibility we
can get the ATAA restored when the bill goes to the Senate. We will keep you
updated on our strategy. For the time being, please continue to advocate
with both Speaker Pelosi’s and Majority Leader Schumer’s offices. 

 

John
