[Ardis Bazyn]

>From Eric Bridges:
Good afternoon everyone!
We are a little more than a month away from the 2012 Legislative Seminar. As we continue
to pull together what will hopefully be an interesting and fun agenda, here  are
the topics to be covered  that can be revealed thus far.
Please know that in the coming weeks a detailed agenda along with imperative papers
will be disseminated.
Legislative Imperatives
1. The need for consistent and  independently identifiable accessible prescription
drug labels.
 2. H.R. 860, legislation that will promote charitable donation of qualified vehicles
to organizations like ACB and its state affiliates.
Other Topics
We will have speakers from the U.S. DOT to discuss rule makings concerning airline
website and kiosk accessibility.
An update from the FCC on the implementation of the Twenty-First Century Communications
and Video Accessibility Act.
A general  read out of the findings from the ACB/Google survey.
A presentation by TSA and much more.
Please register immediately!
Hotel rooms for Midyear must be reserved by  January 31st
.  People also need to register, so that we will know which meetings they are attending
and can provide materials in their format of choice, as well as the meals they will
want to eat.  Participants can register using the form on the ACB web site. We need
those registrations by Monday, February 20!  Registration after that point may mean
that you won't get lunch or materials in your preferred format.
Please go to:
https://register.acb.org/
To register and reserve your hotel room.
I am looking forward to seeing you all again and can't wait to have Congress hear
our collective voice!
