I have a bad feeling about this bill, I don't mind there being a rule
concerning a federal agency to make it's work capable of being used by
disabled personal, but a broad spectrum bill of this sort would waste our

DON'T have any disabled personal.  Typical (D) government program,
building levee's in the desert.
