Hopefully this is just the beginning of the attention we will receive.

Hello, today is Tuesday, April 3, the 86th day of the 105-day 
legislative session.

COMING UP

Picketers from around Washingon will rally on the Capitol steps at 11:30 
a.m. Wednesday to call for more funding for the Washington Talking Book 
and Braille Library.

According to the organizers, Washington Council of the Blind and the 
National Federation of the Blind, the library has not had a funding 
increase for six years. They say it is the sole source of print 
information, whether it is books, magazines or news for many blind 
people. The library provides this information in Braille, large print 
and on cassette.
