Is this newsletter easily read by everyone accept me?

I already sent a note to Miranda, to fix accessibility. She wanted to know which screen reader I use. I told her one of the major ones. 

I don't mean to be snarky, but this gets so old advocating to entities who should know about accessibility.

Becky and the paw-dashing Jake
