hello. We were actually scheduled to meet on the 28th of March
because we couldn't get the room on the 21st. Since we're going virtual
for this meeting, do we want to meet at 3PM on Saturday the 21st of March?
-thanks
-Brian

} This would be pretty easy. I have a Zoom conference room already set up
} from another project and would be happy to facilitate a meeting for this

} The National Federation of the Blind is closely following the rapidly evolv=

} on on March 11, public officials
} across the nation have escalated their response to the virus and issued ne=

} Generally, while specific directives as to the size of permitted public gat=
} herings vary across states and local jurisdictions, public health officials=
} agree that it is advisable to engage in "social distancing" in o=
} rder to prevent or mitigate the spread of
} the virus, and people are being directed to minimize proximity and/or phys=

} <br>
} The National Federation of the Blind is the oldest and largest nationwide o=
} rganization of blind people, with affiliates in all fifty states, the Distr=
} ict of Columbia, and Puerto Rico; hundreds of local chapters; as well as st=
} atewide and national special-interest
} divisions. Together these are comprised of some fifty thousand members and=
} countless volunteers and supporters who conduct various public meetings an=
} d events. The health and safety of our members and friends is our top prior=

} our obligation to follow public health directives and to engage responsibl=
} y with the general public. We also recognize the need for consistent guidan=
} ce across our organization as our affiliates, chapters, and divisions consi=
} der or plan meetings and public
} events.<br>
} <br>
} To that end, the President and Board of Directors of the National Federatio=
} n of the Blind hereby direct that all meetings, events, or public gathering=
} s that are currently planned by affiliates, chapters, and divisions to take=
} place within thirty days from today,
