[IL-Talk] Pam Berman and I are on the news tomorrow

[Leslie Hamric]

Hello my Federation family. An opportunity has come up that just fell into my lap for advocacy and of course, I jumped on it. To make a long story short, Pam Berman and I are going to be on the news. WGNT at 9 PM tomorrow night. Th This is a story about how Guide Dog Users Inc. are being denied by Uber and Lyft, myself included. You will hear one part where my video is featured. The part where you can hear my voice is where I'm saying, she's my guide dog. And the driver is saying: no pet no pet, ma'am! The reporter also got a lot of good information from Melissa Carney from Guiding Eyes For The Blind. Here is the preview video to get y'all in the spirit of watching tomorrow evening.
