    The Committee for Purchase From People Who Are Blind or Severely Disabled has announced updates to the Procurement List. These updates include new products and services that will be provided by nonprofit agencies employing individuals who are blind or have other severe disabilities. Products added include different types of large and extra-large rubber doorstops, while custodial services are added for Cannon Air Force Base in New Mexico. The changes aim to allow more small nonprofit entities to supply these products and services to the Federal Government.

    Simple Explanation

    The government is adding new items and services like big rubber doorstops and cleaning jobs at an Air Force Base to a special shopping list that helps people who have trouble seeing or other disabilities find work. This change means nonprofits can supply the government with these things, making sure that more of these folks have jobs.

    This notice from the Committee for Purchase From People Who Are Blind or Severely Disabled outlines changes to the Federal Procurement List. It adds some new products and services that will be provided by nonprofit agencies employing people with disabilities, while removing others that these agencies previously supplied. The additions include products like various types of slings and services such as postal and custodial operations for the Air Force. Meanwhile, deletions include items like first aid kits and janitorial services previously supplied by these nonprofits. These changes aim to provide more job opportunities for people with disabilities without significantly affecting small entities.

    Simple Explanation

    The government made a list of things they need, and they decided to have special groups of people, like those who can't see well or who find it hard to do some things, help make and do some of these things. They added some new jobs and things these groups will do, and they also took away some old jobs and things they were doing before.
