Greetings from the State Capitol of Florida:
 

This it the third week at the Florida Legislature. Last week saw 3.1 million taken up and added to their budget by the Senate Appropriations Committee for the Vocational Rehab Program.. When there is a shortfall of 4.2 million, the money is important as there is a bigger federal match of 3 to 1 dollar.
 
I will try to bring the 4.1 million up in the House.
 
Please watch www.dignity4disabled.com for the updates on the priorities listed on that web site.
 
More later,
 
Denny R. Wood
President
Florida Paraplegic Association
