Loni,

I read your FCC email but I am not clear on what letter I am supposed to forward

to you.  Am I supposed to compose my own letter in response to what I read or

is there a form letter to use  I saw not attachment.

Dear Friends,

We need to get on top of this one. The White House Office on Disability Policy

and the National Council on Disabilities is working with the FCC and other

federal agencies who carry roles and responsibilities for assuring equal access

and accommodations for persons with disabilities is moving quickly to ensure

that all disabled Americans are fully integrated into community living. The

Assistive Devices Act of 2004 and the " Olmstead decision " , a U.S. Supreme court

civil rights decision, advances that cause. Unfortunately, this campaign leaves

millions of Americans behind - those with environmental illnesses or who have

medical implants.

Earlier this month, several of us signed a letter to the Arizona Center for

Disability Law, there is a federally funded Disability Law Center in each state.

asking them to not overlook the rights to access and accommodation of

environmental disabled people in their 2012 priorities. In that letter, we

mentioned the fact that some disabled people, even those who are being

accommodated due to sight, hearing and mobility impairments, could be harmed by

ensuring full integration when wireless enabled devices and transmitters are

used. What the future may bring is a wireless broadband infrastructure that is

extended into remote geographic areas, public facilities, even private spaces.

Many people who are environmentally disabled are marginalized already and are

forced to live in remote areas and stay out of public places, in order to

survive. This would create a man-made disaster for millions of Americans.

There is a new law being proposed. I think this matter deserves a strong

campaign, to protect the rights of those whose health and welfare is being most

severely affected by exposure to involuntary exposure to increasingly dense and

ubiquitous sources of man-made electromagnetic fields and synthetic chemicals.

We need to call for Congressional hearings on this proposed legislation in order

to give those people who are most adversely affected, and their advocates, an

opportunity to speak. Contact your federally elected representatives, the White

House Office on Disability Policy and the National Council on Disabilities and

let them know!

GREGORY HLIBOK NAMED CHIEF OF THE FCC’S DISABILITY RIGHTS OFFICE

Washington, DC -- Hlibok, currently an attorney in the Disability Rights

Office (DRO) in the Consumer and Governmental Affairs Bureau, has been named to

head that office. “Greg will be heading up the Disability Rights Office at a

crucial time, as the FCC ramps up to implement the most significant disability

law in two decades,†said FCC Chairman Julius Genachowski. “Greg possesses

extensive knowledge in the field of telecommunications access for people with

disabilities as well as the leadership qualities necessary to lead the office.

He will be the first head of DRO who has a disability. Under his direction, the

office will work to ensure that people with disabilities can share fully in the

economic and social benefits of emerging 21st century technologies.†Greg has

been instrumental on a wide array of disability matters in DRO since 2001. He is

known nationally for his role as spokesperson for the Deaf President Now

movement in 1988, which led to the selection of Gallaudet University’s first

deaf president. Gallaudet is the world's only university serving primarily deaf

and hard of hearing students. At the FCC, he has taken the lead in several key

rulemaking proceedings on telecommunications access for people with

disabilities, including new initiatives on the National Broadband Plan. Greg now

lives in Ellicott City, MD with his wife and four children, and also serves as

the board president of his alma mater, Lexington School for the Deaf. He is a

graduate of Gallaudet University and Hofstra Law School. In addition to its new

duties in implementing the new Act, the Disability Rights Office has

responsibility for a variety of disability-related telecommunications matters,

including telecommunications relay service (TRS), access to telecommunications

equipment and services by persons with disabilities, access to emergency

information, and closed

captioning. DRO also provides expert advice and assistance to other Bureaus and

Offices, consumers, and industry, in order to support the Commission's goal of

increasing the accessibility of communications services and technologies for

persons with disabilities. - FCC -
