[NFBWATlk] Interview with Trade Advisor Peter Navarro about repurposing manufacturing, thinking of the lighthouses for blind across country.

[Judy Jones]

Very true with all that.  I couldn't find the interview snippet of his with today's date, thus the long broadcaast, in light of the upcoming call tonight.

I'll see what I can do about that tomorrow.

Nevertheless, those inour organization with Lighthouse CEO contacts should pass on the idea of the repurpose-expansion, not necessarily involving the NFB, but passing along the ideas.

Thanks for thinking of ideas, Judy. I would recommend to you and others who might have ideas concerning National Federation of the Blind national policies that you send them to send them to officeofthepresident at nfb.org. I would also recommend that they be sent to him in some other way than a 23 minute news broadcast.
