Catching up with my good friend John Paré, a community leader in Riverside and National Federation of the Blind's (NFB) Executive Director of Advocacy and Policy. Proud that NFB is headquartered in 11th District. We found an amazing pic of him riding a unicycle in Riverside Park!

80% of #PWD are not employed. This is unacceptable! We urge employers to hire more people with disabilities. #WeWantToWork #ExpectEmployment #HappyLaborDay bls.gov/news.release/pdf/dis…
Hey @Fitbit, please make your product nonvisually accessible for blind and low vision customers. For a heart healthy company, your lack of #accessibility is, well, heartless. #PWD #accessibility #workout @FitbitSupport

Delegate @LukeClippinger, thanks for your update on activity in the Maryland General Assembly. I greatly appreciate your work to improve educational opportunities and protect the civil rights of Marylanders in District 46 and throughout the state! #MDGA
Delagate @EricEbersole and Delagate @VAtterbeary, Please move HB547, the Accountability Act for Accessible K-12 Education, out of committee. This bill is critical for blind students in Maryland! #DisabilityRights are #CivilRights @NFBMD

.@JamieRaskin, thank you for narrating your book, "Unthinkable," yourself! Hearing your first hand description of your son's life and the January 6 insurrection were so impactful. I was also honored to attend the book signing and will always treasure my signed print copy.

.@SpeakerPelosi and @LeaderHoyer, restore the provisions of the Access Technology Affordability Act (H.R. 431/S. 212) to the Build Back Better Act! This provision will help us improve education, obtain employment, and increase self-sufficiency! @RepThompson @SenatorCardin

In a Q&A exchange about high expectations, a blind mentor said that he had two children. A puzzled child shouted, "You have kids?!?! How did you do that?" The mentor paused and replied, "The usual way." #PWD #TeachableMoments #parenting

League should worry less about taunting and more about the consistency with roughing the passer calls. Because anyone other than Lamar Jackson is getting this call.

35-8 as a starting QB. There is no “figuring out” Lamar Jackson.
