Voting is a fundamental right, yet many PWD faced barriers. The Biden Administration's response is crucial in ensuring inclusivity. Let's champion accessibility and democracy for all. #DisabilityRights #VotingRights ada.gov/resources/prot…
Words can’t express how much it means to have a @POTUS who gets that you can’t fix the economy w/out addressing #TheCareEconomy For family #Caregivers #CareWorkers #Aging & #Disabled we’ll work w/ you to win on Care to better the economic future of families! #CareCantWait

Thanks @JulieReiskin for this story. Another reason digital accessibility enforcement important! Despite legal requirements "disabled people say they regularly encounter hotel websites with misleading and inaccurate information — or no information at all." washingtonpost.com/wellness/2023/…
I applaud @JoeBiden for embracing his stutter - shows personal strength! Millions in disability community respect his openness about it, showing disability does not prohibit us from pursuing our dreams. Thank you Mr. President! #DisabilityAwareness washingtonpost.com/politics/2024/…
I wholeheartedly applaud @JoeBiden for his leadership and courage to openly discuss his stutter. By sharing his experiences, he's raising awareness and understanding -- and mitigating the stigma for others that stutter.

There is nothing less Presidential than mocking disability. Trump would mock my seizures, just like he mocks stuttering. He feels threatened. Don't forget, in 2016 he mocked a @nytimes reporter with disability. Decency requires we VOTE NO to Trump! washingtonpost.com/elections/2024…

I am excited to see other states looking to follow in Oregon's footsteps to ban measures like #QALYs! Until Congress acts to extend Medicare's protections against their use, states must lead. showmestatetimes.com/stories/655705…
Applaud @doj standing up for students with disabilities in Pasco County, FL! The settlement ensures equal opportunities and ends discrimination. Children deserve an opportunity to learn! #EducationForAll #InclusionMatters justice.gov/opa/pr/justice…
This is a tremendous victory for people w/ #disabilities in Oregon. Thank you @DisabilityRtsOR for your persistence to ban generalized quality of life measures like #QALYs to restrict access to care, demonstrating to other states and the nation it can be done!

@HonTonyCoelho Thanks. I appreciate your doing this.
@HonTonyCoelho Very curious to know what that will mean in practice going forward.
Thanks @disabilityscoop for reporting on House passage of H.R. 485. We hope concerns about the bill’s offset are addressed in Senate to achieve a policy consistent with Medicare across federal programs! disabilityscoop.com/2024/02/12/con…
The current law is not vague - it bans QALYs “or similar measure that discounts the value of a life because of an individual’s disability.” The language in H.R. 485 is not new - it simply extends this current law to other programs. Tell Congress to pass H.R. 485.
