A national dialogue has been opened about what features are important
on the Recovery.gov website.

Knowbility has partnered with the open standards group to promote
accessibility as a critical web standard.

This is an opportunity for the accessibility community to take a
strong stand about the accessibility of the citizen communication
tools being implemented by the Obama administration. Please log on
and support this position at

recovery.gov/

Thanks very much!
Sharron
