Good work hopefully others followed up and sent letters or made called.

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.

> Hi Eric,
> 
> Thank you for reaching out! We did receive a copy of the book, and I have given it to Rep. Isaacsohn to read. Thank you for sending us the book, and more importantly, thank you for your critical advocacy!
> 
> Rep. Isaacsohn is a supporter of HB 427 and will continue to help push the bill toward a floor vote. There's absolutely no reason we should be paying employees with disabilities a subminimum wage, and he will continue to push to right this wrong.
> 
> Thanks again for both the book and for your crucial advocacy on this issue. Without people like you standing up for what you believe is right and putting pressure on the legislature, little of value would get done. Please keep up the great work and know that Rep. Isaacsohn stands with you in support of passing HB 427. If our office can ever assist you with anything or you have anything else you would like to share, please do not hesitate to reach out!
