Jess, I spent 20 years of my working life providing audio description for blind and visually impaired people. This segment of our population is largely forgotten when it comes to political influence. They are the last disability group to be acknowledged and served. Those is extremely important. Thank you. I will share this with folks I know in this community. Both the folks we serve and those who do the setvice.
Thank you for this email! My father lost his sight in his early 60s and the Braille Institute tapes were crucial to him. It enabled him to stay engaged and continue his love of reading. My dad left HS to serve in WW2 as a belly gunner in the Mediterranean Theatre and was awarded a Silver Star for his courage. I miss him everyday and sent a poignant email to Newsom.
