[NFBWATLK] free matter for the blind

Hi,
It is a case of many letter carriers being wrong. It even happened to me right in the post office. I had to ask them to go look it up because they didn't believe me. 

I have alerted the Californians. Thanks,
Lauren

Blessings in Jesus’ name!  
Philippians 2:9-11
9Why God also has highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name: 10That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth; 11And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.

Advice from my cats:"Meow when you feel like it."

I feel certain that we would have heard something from our national leadership if there was even a hint at any change, and such a change could not be made by Executive Order. Congress would have to change the law. This is a case of a letter carrier being wrong. 

Lauren, you are living in California again, right? You might want to let Ever Lee know about this.

I don't mean to be political, but Mr. Trump likes to do things by executive order. An office recently shut down in DC and the staff didn't even know it was going to happen. We just have to stay aware.

>> This afternoon a mail carrier informed our office staff that free matter for the blind had been changed and was no longer available. Because I was not in the office at the time to correct them, the office personnel paid, from their own pockets, the postage to mail the braille material. This is not okay. So, in case anyone does this to you, here is the pertinent info:
