From: Alexander Vachon
Re: Congratulations Note to Mrs. Margaret Hager

I called Margaret Hager on Thursday to congratulate her on her appointment earlier this year to the U.S. Architectural & Transportation Barriers Compliance Board (ATBCB) (see attached article). Fritz Edmonds is also a member of ATBCB. I met Maggie when she was a member of the National Council on Disability.

Maggie mentioned to me that she and her husband are longstanding friends of you and Mrs. Dole, and that "all Virginia" is looking forward to seeing you on Monday at the luncheon for George Allen in Richmond.

I prepared a letter from you congratulating Mrs.Hager on her ATBCB appointment (attached).

Dear Maggie,

Just a brief note to congratulate you on your appointment to the U.S. Architectural & Transportation Compliance Board. I know you bring enormous conunitment and real world experience to this important responsibility, and I look forward to working with you and seeking your good advice on many important issues affecting people with disabilities.

If I or Dr. Alexander Vachon, my Legislative Assistant for Disability Policy, can be helpful in any respect, please let me know.

Elizabeth sends her warmest regards as well to you and John.

Sincerely,

BOB DOLE
