their bother because most blind people, even in sheltered employment

marginal victory at leasts removes them from being an obstacle, if not an
affirmative supporter. Pometrantz led the pro position, consistent with the
NFB, and Edwards led the old-guard opposition, concerned that the change
would harm those with multiple disabilities and the other tired arguments
that we hear on the other side of this issue.
