Subject: [leadership] Alert: Whitehouse Signing Ceremony for 
Telecommunications Bill



On Friday afternoon President Obama will sign in to law the 
Twenty-First Century Communications and Video Accessibility Act during 
an official signing ceremony at the Whitehouse. I am proud to say that 
ACB will be well represented at this event. Here is a list of ACB 
members that I am aware of  who will be in attendance during this 
momentous occasion.



Kim Charlson, ACB First Vice President and constituent of Rep. Markey

Brian Charlson, ACB member and constituent of Rep. Markey

Bob Hachey, President of the Bay State Council of the Blind and 
Constituent of Rep. Markey

  Melanie Brunson, Executive Director of ACB

Eric Bridges, Director of Advocacy and Governmental Affairs  for ACB

Dionne Matthews, Office Manager/Executive Assistant for ACB

Pratik Patel, Chair of ACB’s Information Access committee

Jesse Acosta, ACB member



As I wrote in my message to you last week as the bill passed through 
the House, this signing ceremony would not have been possible without 
the tireless advocacy of ACB’s members. Collectively as an organization 
we played a critical role in having this legislation become law.

Thank you for all of your work over the past 3 years! There will be 
much more advocacy needed to insure that the law is implemented 
correctly. I will communicate those efforts in due time but for now 
please enjoy the satisfaction that can only come  from a job well done!



Eric
