>> Greetings my Florida Federation Family,

>> I hope you are doing well. John Pare had a very good meeting with Representative Buchanan last week and was able to explain the problem and how ATAA is a solution. Now would be a great time for Florida members to follow up with Buchanan’s staffer Sally. Tel: (202) 225-5015 or E-mail: sally.dionne at mail.house.gov.

>> “My name is [name] and I am a constituent of Representative Buchanan. I am writing to let the Congressman know that I support the Access Technology Affordability Act (H.R. 1734) and ask that he do the same. This bill will remove employment barriers for blind Americans and allow us to be a part of the growing economy. It will help us succeed in my pursuit of education and live independently.
>>  
>> Thank you for your support of blind Americans.
>>  
>> Sincerely,
>> [Yourname
