Hello,
My name is Sara Novic calling Senator Murkowski in her capacity on the HELP committee to ask her to please vote no on Linda McMahon's nomination. As a deaf person, mother of a disabled child, and a teacher, I know how important our Department of Education
oversight, funding, and accommodations protections are. I have friends in the deaf education sector in AK from whom I'm sure you've already heard, who are concerned about how this will affect children in your state. Please protect the rights of all children to attend and thrive at school. Thank you.

Hi Senator Paul,
My name is Sara Novic and I'm calling about your HELP committee vote, asking you to vote NO on Linda McMahon. Given the attacks on Dept of Ed's research, IDEA data contracts canceled last night, and ongoing lawsuit to dismantle Section 504, we cannot leave the rights
of disabled students up to the whim of your colleagues. I know that you have been a supporter of disability rights in the past As a deaf person, mother of a disabled child, and teacher, I ask you to please do the right thing.
