Increased training for law enforcement on how to interact with people with disabilities with respect and deescalation.
A jobs guarantee that includes good, $15+ per hour, union jobs for people with disabilities.
Increased transportation funding for people with disabilities, so it doesn’t take five hours to make a 30-minute doctor’s appointment.
An end to the disrespectful sub-minimum wage for people with disabilities. If you work, you get paid at least minimum wage. Period.
Protection & expansion of the Social Security Disability Insurance program (SSDI). SSDI is vitally important to 10m Americans, incl. children and veterans. The average disability benefit is about $1,200 a month. For many people, that is their entire income. It is not enough.
The Disability Integration Act (DIA), so that people who need Long Term Services and Supports do not lose their basic civil rights by being forced into institutions.
Sadly, it's rare to see politicians even mention people with disabilities during their speeches, much less propose legislation to help them. Thanks for remembering these #ForgottenVoters!
