Your plan has no mention of long-term care whatsoever. What are disabled people who need attendants supposed to do? Did you ever end up including disabled people in planning your platform?

If it's healthcare, it's covered by these points. Long term care for people with disabilities is healthcare.

Long-term services and supports (LTSS) is literally not health care, or mostly not health care. It's specifically helping people out of bed, dressing, bathing, cooking, and other ADLs. It needs to be specifically addressed because it's not health care.

How tf is that not considered health care? Excuse my ignorance, this doesn't make sense to me. Seniors who have Medicaid have this type of care covered by Medicaid, I thought it was the same thing.
