I am fighting w/ @LeadingAgeNY @NYDisabilityAdv & @AHRCNYC against Medicaid cuts w/c threaten #PWD, #olderadults & all New Yorkers. Caring for a loved one is not a partisan or upstate-downstate issue. It’s a human issue. My Op-Ed in @amNewYork. tinyurl.com/bdc58b4d

We need legislators to #InvestInUs by increasing investment in disability services. A 7.8% targeted inflationary increase, wage commission, and non-profit rate setting reforms are necessary to ensure stable care. Tell your lawmakers to act NOW: bit.ly/3ZDGflE #InvestInMe

Great meeting with some of the @AHRCNYC team this morning #onStatenIsland! Now more than ever we must protect vital programs like this that support our special needs community. I’ll fight to make sure these groups receive their fair share because it’s what they deserve.

"It started with disability roundtables about parts of the city that weren't accessible, which led to discussions about transportation." "Everyone said express buses." Our participatory audit model gives NYC residents a voice in the oversight and accountability process.

“It would be hard to overstate how serious these threats are…Medicaid is a lifeline program for our community — we need to make it clear that it should be expanded, not looted to pay for tax cuts for billionaires.” disabilityscoop.com/2025/01/21/tru…

AHRCNYC's tweet card. Disability advocates are preparing to fend off potentially seismic cuts to Medicaid now that President Donald Trump is back at the White House and Republicans are in control on Capitol Hill.
