<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">With all respect, I think we should take the fact that The American Association of Community Colleges signed the letter as them supporting it. It\u2019s unclear to me whether our state colleges belong to that
group as ironically their search isn\u2019t too accessible. If Monica meets with SBCTC\u2019s leadership on this, I think questions should be more along the lines of \u201cWhat is SBCTC\u2019s / our system\u2019s stance on Title II / this letter?\u201d and \u201cAre you aware that American
Association of Community Colleges, Educause and other groups supports pausing implementation of Title II of ADA? Realistically here are some of the implications of that happening.\u201d Maybe CATO can re-share our CATO letter of support for Title II with SBCTC
leadership, which is becoming more important by the day. </span><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Segoe UI Emoji",sans-serif">😊</span><span style="font-size:11.0pt"><o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">Also, if you have the energy or know a contact from any of the fifteen signing organizations, perhaps email them and explain the situation and ask them to rescind the letter.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">Rob Carr said something in last week\u2019s training that really stuck with me: \u201cThe headwinds are so strong against access work right now.\u201d I\u2019m thankful to have you all weathering these winds with me.
