Hi All,
I wanted to let you know we have some breaking news regarding the 
Medical Device Nonvisual Accessibility Act. Yesterday, January 18, 2024 
the Medical Device Nonvisual Accessibility Act was introduced in the 
United States Senate. It’s bill number is S.3621 and it was introduced 
by Senator Margret Hassan (D-New Hampshire) and Senator Mike Braun 
(R-Indiana).
This is wonderful news because it’s the first time we have had a Senate 
bill on the topic, the bill is bipartisan, and it’s very helpful both 
sponsor and lead cosponsor are on the relevant committee.
