From the Tech-VI list owner:

A prefilled letter is not showing up in the email which was forwarded to me. Therefore, if you wish to contact your representative or senator, you will need to compose the letter yourself.

 

From: Bookshare <communi...@bookshare.org>

 

 

Dear Member, 

 

We're reaching out with an urgent request to keep Bookshare free for students with disabilities. The proposed 2026 Congressional Budget Request aims to

eliminate crucial federal funding for Bookshare and other vital special education resources. 

 

Your voice is incredibly important right now, and your personal experience with Bookshare is powerful. Please take a moment to send a pre-filled letter

to both your US Representative and Senator. You can also personalize it with your own unique story.

 

Take Action

Thank you for being a vital advocate for accessible education. 

 

The Bookshare Team
