Do we need to write another letter or is the one we wrote before Christmas
good?

Dear NFBO,

The legislative session is back underway and testimony in front of the Ohio
House Health Committee for Bill 214
<https://www.legislature.ohio.gov/legislation/legislation-summary?id=GA133-H
B-214>  regarding prescription drug readers for blind Ohioan's is on the
agenda for Tuesday January 21, 2020.

There is still time for you to submit testimony or a letter of support if
you would like.  To ensure your testimony is available to members on their
iPads, Chairman Lipps requests that all testifying parties submit written
testimony and a completed witness slip (if you plan to attend, form
attached) to his office by 5 pm, January 17th. Testimony can be emailed to:
Hannah.Stanbery at ohiohouse.gov <mailto:Hannah.Stanbery at ohiohouse.gov> .

It would be an amazing show of solidarity if a wide variety of people and
organizations expressed their support and belief that this legislation would
improve the health and safety of blind people.

The National Federation of the Blind 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
