We need to pass our national legislation, keep the harmful ADA reform bill (HR 620) from passing and we need to make sure the additional IRS deduction stays in our tax law. It allows blind people to take a deduction for all or those extra expenses we have such as drivers/transportation, technology, readers and blindness related supplies.

>> The National Federation of the Blind of Washington knows that blindness is not the characteristic that defines you or your future. Every day we raise the expectations of blind people, because low expectations create obstacles between blind people and our dreams. You can live the life you want; blindness is not what holds you back.
