<P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 10pt"><FONT face=Calibri>Kirk told us
that he has received the masks and that he will be mailing them to the members.
Kirk played the Presidential release for January. Kirk gave the dates for
Washington Seminar and Oregon Legislative Seminar. Members were asked to
consider possible legislative topics for Legislative Seminar and forward them to
Ryan. We had a discussion about Washington Legislative seminar & Oregon
Legislative seminar. Kirk brought up that National convention might be virtual
in July and the idea of chapters meeting together for some of the meetings and
members gave their opinions about options in meeting together as a chapter
during National Convention. Kirk asked Jack if he has been able to get in touch
with National Newsline persons to get information about inquiry dealing with
Newsline in Oregon. Jack has not been able to get in touch with National at this
time & he will keep trying to get in touch with them. Jack read the
questions about Newsline to the chapter members. We will still keep working on
the Newsline awareness issue in Oregon. Members gave their impressions &
thoughts about the Braille Monitor article “Blindness: Is the Public Against
Us?” by Kenneth Jernigan April 2020 issue. Kirk suggested that we bring up more
articles from the Braille Monitor as we read them, members will let Kirk know of
articles that will be good for the chapter to have a discussion about it. Kirk
adjourned the meeting.<o:p></o:p></FONT></P>
