NOSSA Supports LPA denouncement of the term "midget"

NOSSA supports LPA in calling for the FCC to ban the term "midget" from TV. This term is derogatory and offensive.

Pre-election message from NOSSA President

Members and Supporters,

Please join me in wishing our election candidates good luck with their upcoming campaigns for positions on the NOSSA Board of Directors.

I have faith that our next Board will do an outstanding job advocating for short statured adults.

As some of you have already heard through the grapevine, I will not be seeking re-election for President next term. The reason is because I believe it is time to give someone else a chance to drive this NOSSA choo-choo train.

I have really enjoyed my time as President and I am honored to have had the chance to represent you.

I will be happy to share my candidate endorsements with you over the next few months.I will do so only in private forums out of respect for all of our candidates. I hope you will take the time to learn about them and vote in November for your next board.

Thank you for your support of NOSSA.

With much hope and enthusiasm for the future...

Respectfully,

Matt
Chairman/President
NOSSA
National Organization Of Short Statured Adults,Inc.
