    Wondering how can cite the gang of 19 and the work of in saving but then remove mention of one our signature policy objectives from her plan? If she no longer supports the bill she needs to explain that and tell us why!

    cannot use our history in Disability rights and roll back her support for the Disability Integration Act. The gang of 19 from my home state of CO who lead the bus blockade she brought up were doing so to start a movement of freeing our people.

    Support ! You are the ONLY candidate NOT supporting Go here for information: Let us know when you will support issues!

    Reading 's plan, and while its not ignoring our community's very existence, the removal of any reference to would seem to make it less ambitious than I have come to expect from her.

    Replying to @ewarren
    Senator, you were an original cosponsor of S. 117, the Disability Integration Act. You did not mention it in your plan. I am confused. Is it not a priority? Does civil rights for us not fit in? Here's the link, just in case it slipped your mind.

    Hey please explain! Disability activists have been working with you to pass tbe Disability Integration Act since you first became my Senator, what happened???

    She was an original cosponsor of the bill in the Senate, so I'm not sure why it wouldn't be worthy of inclusion in her plan, unless she is trying to say it will not be a priority for her administration.

    is on the hill handing out holiday cards. We're letting Senators and Congress People know that we are compiling our nice lists. Explaining that they need to support and help push through if they don't want a lump of coal.

    An ADAPT organizer sits in her wheelchair wearing a bright orange sweatshirt holding a holiday card that reads "ADAPT is making its list and Checking it twice is Senator Hirono Naughty or Nice?" With an ADAPT Free our people logo in the bottom right corner.

    Even as a disabled person, you can be ableist, sanist, audist, etc. We are still required to do the work of anti-ableism within ourselves. Without , our movements are not as powerful.

    James was a character with his balloon sculptures & massive service dogs. He was a man of many talents & his advocacy came from the heart. He tried many avenues to outreach and get new folks involved.
