@MCPS⁩ ⁦@mocoboe⁩ gives McKight $1.3 million for being a bad superintendent, but they want to cut my developmentally disabled kid’s PT from once a week to once a month. She still can’t consistently walk up and down stairs without assistance. ⁦@ksglassman⁩ ⁦

@SmPotatoes @SmPotatoes can we get this guy to go after all the non disabled people who use handicapped parking in Bethesda? As in every single time I go out to the point where I don’t even try to take my disabled kid out by myself on the weekend anymore?

sad to report that a day program for special needs adults in Manassas, VA, tells us they will close by end of the week. Here is our @NewsHour profile of them in January as they desperately tried to stay open in the face of federal budget cuts pbs.org/newshour/show/…

@ReadyMontgomery @MCDOTNow @311MC311 @MontCoExec now that we know the new policy is only to clear one lane we’ll keep the handicapped van in her spot for the next storm. You could not help us but thankfully these teenagers could. If only we could get a $120 tax credit back.

@MDHealthDept @MDHealthDept what about the profoundly disabled kids like my daughter who are nonverbal and cannot independently complete any activities of daily living? Could we stop leaving them behind?

If you are digging her doctors out, can’t you help her access her spot? We receive zero assistance from the government to manage the life of our profoundly disabled child. In this extreme event, we are asking for assistance, or at least to borrow a plow.

We put in the formal service request yesterday as advised and were told someone would help. Called operator to provide more detail and she was adamant they could not help.

@MontCoExec @MCDOTNow We are still waiting for them to finish plowing our street so we can access our disabled daughter’s handicapped space and parking for her caretaker.

From today's media briefing: If there is more than 3 or 4 inches of snow on the street, then it probably hasn't been plowed, and we would appreciate you letting us know that through 311 and being very specific in your service request whether the street has been plowed or not.
