State Representative David Bly, MN District 25B

I participated in the Region 10 Legislative Town Hall Meeting about Public Policy Issues that Impact People with Disabilities early this month along with Sen. Kevin Dahle who wrote a nice blog entry about it. So rather than repeat what he said, I will just commend the participants who spoke with courage and dignity about their lives and needs and offer this link to Kevin’s site. It was good to see friends from EPIC and Laura Baker at the Buckham Library in Faribault and talk with them and organizers Karen Larson and JoAnn Lawler afterwards. Karen and JoAnne did a great job. To learn more about their work you might also want to check out the MN Voice website as well as the Southeast ARC website for more information about their many projects.
