They would frame it as a celebration of inclusivity and empowerment for blind and visually impaired individuals, showcasing the positive impact these vendors have on workforce development and community engagement.

They could suggest that simply recognizing their efforts is insufficient without accompanying policies that provide tangible assistance and opportunities for growth.
