Obama Wants You

2009 February 19

Kind of.

If you’re deaf or hard of hearing, or meet the definition of being disabled, then that’s you.

I received the following email from a friend. Apparently Obama’s making sure the stimulus dollars are benefiting the disabled population. Basically, any disabled person who has been re-hired or has gone back to work because of the economic recovery plan, should contact the Kareem Dale, you’ll find his email address embedded in the letter below.

Subject: Request from Disability Special Assistant at White House

Kareem Dale – Special Assistant for Disability Policy to President Obama is looking for any person with a disability who has gone back to work or been rehired as a result of the economic recovery plan. For example, some company starts hiring again as a result of money they are going to receive. He has asked that we disseminate his request to our various communities. He said this is important and time sensitive and will assist him in facilitating full inclusion of disability.

Please forward and respond to Kareem Dale directly.
