[nabs-l] Hashtag for the Accessible Instructional Material in Higher Education (AIMHE) Act

Tue Sep 27 16:08:41 UTC 2016

Friends,

Michael is correct. We are not opposing HR 6122, the AIM HE Act is building upon the work started by our former TEACH Act. Please contact your representative to encourage them to support the bill as a cosponsor.

Help remove artificial barriers for blind students in classrooms nation-wide, click here to learn more.! #DontDenyAimHigh

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.

Make a gift to the National Federation of the Blind and help ensure all blind Americans live the lives they want.
