Subject: Reminder: Library for the Blind vote is on June 12
Fellow Federationists:
It is imperative that we continue to call Chairman David Obey, Ranking
Member Jerry Lewis, and as many other members as possible of the House
Appropriations Committee regarding the full $19.1 million funding for
the conversion from antiquated, analog cassette tapes to digital
technology. The committee vote is schedule for this Tuesday, June 12,
so it is critical that we all call on Monday, June 11. Contact
information for all members of the Committee on Appropriations is listed
below.
I suggest you phrase your request as follows:
"I am requesting that Representative (name) support the full $19.1
million funding for the Library of Congress for the conversion from
antiquated,
analog cassette tapes to digital technology. Without this full funding
blind Americans will lose their only public library." Then talk about
how you use the library.
Our press release and the "Washington Post" editorial are both available
from our home page: www.nfb.org.
We must work together to save this essential service.
We will send out another update as soon as additional
information is available.
