1 thing gives me hope. Disabled ppl organizing. Orgs like @DisabledSouth and @DisabilityPower we need more of this. Nothing changes for our community relying on the kindness of politicians. Change for disabled ppl has only happened when we made it happen. #CriptheVote #ADA35
@GavinNewsom is trying to bring back asset limits for Californians to qualify for Medi-Cal. Again when and again both parties have shown us that they love our community as long as being a part of the world doesn't cost them. #CripTheVote #ADA35 #ADA2025
Dems in NY also passed #assistedsuicide legislation this year because what better while taking away people's ability to live their lives in the community than ensure they have an option to die. #CripTheVote #ADA35 #ADA2025
But the @GOP are not alone. Democratic governor's like @GovKathyHochul & @GavinNewsom have done their own damage to the Community Hochul destroyed the best home care program in the state leaving thousands of workers unpaid and disabled people without care! #CripTheVote #ADA35
As always it seems as though everyone loves disabled people until they decide we are too expensive. Federally @realDonaldTrump's GOP has decimated Medicaid. #CripTheVote #ADA35 #ADA2025
Its #ADA35 and its hard to feel hopeful for the Disability Community. #Disability does still seem to be bipartisan, unfortunately the bipartisan effort seems to focused on attacking Disabled people's ability to live our lives. #CripTheVote #ADA2025

CBS canceled Colbert’s show just THREE DAYS after Colbert called out CBS parent company Paramount for its $16M settlement with Trump – a deal that looks like bribery. America deserves to know if his show was canceled for political reasons. Watch and share his message.

We Have Had Enough. We Demand Action on Ontario’s Group Homes Now. Many thanks to Eric Wickham and @PressProgress for covering our policy brief and press conference! Link in bio or pressprogress.ca/disability-adv…
People with disabilities are fed up, we have been marginalized to death, we have literally lost income and rights under federal, provincial and municipal policy failures, we are car accident survivors, workplace injured ignored by wsib, some of us are born with a rough start,…

It is coercive for disabled people to be asked over and over again: “Do you want a DNR (Do Not Resuscitate) Order?” Nondisabled people are asked once. Disabled people are asked repeatedly. It is devaluation. It is ableism.
BREAKING: Donald Trump goes nuclear on former ally Elon Musk and threatens to strip away all of his lucrative government contracts amidst the billionaire's efforts to kill his "big, beautiful bill." Full-blown MAGA civil war has finally arrived... "Elon was 'wearing thin,' I…
