Below is the announcement from the Rehabilitation Services Administration!

Re:        WIA Markup Postponed

              For those who read on the run, this Washington Wire deals with 
only one issue:  The postponement of the Workforce Investment Act 
reauthorization
markup in the Senate, which was scheduled for August 3, 2011.

              Earlier this morning, we received official word from the Hill 
that the Senate HELP Committee markup of the discussion draft of the 
reauthorization
of the Workforce Investment Act (WIA), which includes, of course, the 
reauthorization of the Rehabilitation Act, has been postponed until sometime 
after
the summer recess.  As we understand it, the markup will take place on other 
issues, but the WIA Reauthorization discussion draft will NOT be on the 
agenda.


               At this time, no date has been set for the rescheduling of 
the markup of the Senate WIA discussion draft.

               We will keep you advised as additional information becomes 
known to us.

                Thank you.
