[NHLakesChapter] Fwd: 2022 Gubernatorial Town Hall on Disability

[dee moore]

Hi Kelley,

Since both are candidates for Governor, they may or may not be aware of the specifics of those bills, so you might ask more general questions about the issues which those bills are trying to address, with examples such as web  accessibility & state whether you find the NH government website accessible or not, & what is your problem with it.

If you voted in the primary on Tuesday you can state whether you had difficulties & ask if they would help fix it.

Look at the Washington Seminar info you got in January, or look at NFB.org legislative agenda for the concepts. You can ask if they support those concepts & would they actively work to improve these problems facing NH citizens, especially since the population of older citizens with vision impairment is growing.  Also, Our vision impair youth must become prepared to be active involved citizens.

Remember these men are running for Governor of NH & the bills are for US Congress to vote on.

Good luck & thanks for participating!! I’ll be on the ‘Silver Retreat’ so not sure I’ll be able to join in.
