[Nfbofnc] urgent legislative action needed now--contacting our representatives about merger

[Lusi98]

Good Evening, All.

 

There is a chance that an amendment may be introduced in the house tomorrow which would do away with the merger provision in the House budget. At this point stop contacting senators until further notice. Redouble your efforts on Representatives. Tell them the following in your own words, but don't add to or take away from it. If an amendment is introduced on the House floor to stop the merger of Services for the Blind, Services for the Deaf and Hard of Hearing, and Vocational Rehabilitation cutting the funding from elsewhere, please vote for it. 

 

On a very positive note Accessible Electronic Information System for the Blind and Disabled is in the House Version of the budget. There's no need to mention this.

 

Let's keep those phone calls and emails coming!! First call your own representative. Then call others in your area. Lastly contact any Representative in the State.

 

Thanks for your great work!!
