I need some help with my sign language project.

I'm a second year ASL student and I am working on a project for my class in which we are to choose any subject having to do with the Deaf community. Being a Political Science major, I decided that I want my project to be on Politics and Deafness and discuss the participation of Deaf people in politics, and maybe find some ways to make politics more deaf-friendly.

So, for this project, I could just do some research on the internet, but I would really like some input from actual deaf people (or people who have deaf family members or friends who would like to help me out). If anybody would be interested in helping me out, please send me a PM so I can send you the questions that I would like to include in my project! Thanks!
