Brian,

What is the $2 million you are referring to?

To add to what Mr. Freeman said: As you probably know several NFB
employees, many of whom have devoted a good part of their lives to the
Federation lost their jobs last year due to budget reductions. Running
any kind of organization requires setting priorities, and at least to
this rank-and-file member I think our priorities should be basically
as they are—that is on activities that keep the NFB message in the
public eye.

Best,

Paul
