Good morning Mike,

Thanks a lot for your reply and explanation.

Let’s hope this bill find its way through during the next general assembly.

Take care.

Hello,
Sherry and I met with Adam from the president of the Senate office, and he indicated that 309 was not going to be voted on during what was reported to be the last session of the General assembly. However we are not for certain that this is going to be the last day of voting based on information received out of another Senators office. I believe that we will have to bring this bill up in the next General assembly. We are currently working out on the strategy as to how best to do this. If we do have to introduce this in the next General assembly I am working on out how to best do this. We may approach it from both the House and the Senate in a way that is referred to as companion legislation. This is something that I can explain to the group later.. should we need to introduce this again, I am planning to seek out an original sponsor for the new version of 309 both in the house and in the Senate.

Best,

Michael

Happy new year,
The legislative committee will be meeting in the near future to plan out our
upcoming year and legislative strategy, as a part of this we will need
information from each of the members. In the next few weeks I am asking that
each of the members of the national Federation of the blind of Ohio go to
Ohio Senate.gov , And Ohio house.gov. Once you go to each of these websites
please go to these find your senator and find your house member part of the
webpage. At that point please put in your city address and ZIP Code to find
out who your senator in house member would be. We need this information so
that we can start contacting both senators and representatives that we have
constituents four. , We have learned that committee members respond better
to direct request from constituents. We will be targeting these senators and
representatives this year to introduce our legislation. Thank you and it
Vance for obtaining this information. Please send this information directly
to either Sherry or myself. Should you have any questions feel free to reach
out to one of us. Thank you again for all your hard work

Best,

Michael g
