Subject: COMISSION BILL IN ARIZONA
ON APRIL 22  THE SENATE APPROPRIATIONS COMMITT EE PASSED HB2289 A  BILL
SPONSORED BY THE ARIZONA AFFILIATE , WHICH WILL CREATE THE COMISSION FOR THE
BILND HERE IN ARIZONA.  THIS COMMISSION WILL BE MADE UP OF 5 MENBERS. 3 MUST
BE BLOND.  
THE BILL MUST STILL BE PASSED BY THE COMMITTEE OF THE WHOLE, THE THIRD
READING, AND BE VOTED ON AGAIN BY THE HOUSE SINCE THERE WERE TWO MINOR
AMENDMENTS.  THIS IS ALMOST A SURE THING.  UNLESS THERE IS SOMETHING REAL BAD
THAT HAPPENS, AND THAT ISN'T LIKELY, WE WILL HAVE OUR COMISSION IN JULY, AND
IT WILL TAKE OVER  OPERATUIONS ON JANUARY 1 OF 1999.  
THE BLIND OF ARIZONA HAVE FAUGHT LONG AND HARD TO ACHIEVE THIS GOAL.  TODAY 
E
HAVE WONE A GREAT VICTORY, NOT ONLY FOR THE NFB, BUT FOR ALL THE BLIND IN
ARIZONA.  
PLEASE POST THIS ON ALL ECHOS YOU WOULD LIKE TO POST IT ON.  ALL THE 
ISTENERS
WOULD BE DELIGHTED TO HEAR IT AS I AM TO SEND IT. THERE WILL BE ANOTHER POST
WHEN THE FINAL VOTES COME AND ANOTHER POST WHEN THE GOVERNOR SIGNS THE BILL.
ALL THE NATION CAN CELEBRATE WITH THE BLIND OF ARIZONA ON THAT GREAT DAY.  
                                              THANKS
                                                   LEE
