In case I’m late to the party Colorado is blocking Trump from the ballot citing the Insurrection Clause in the 14th Amendment. Trump is suing of course to remain on. thehill.com/regulation/cou…

Disabled people deserve a living wage. Disabled people deserve marriage equality. Disabled people deserve to be treated like human beings.

Today I turn 26, along with the oldest of our Gen Z population. I’m proud to say that I am the first of my generation to run in GAHD 158, and am honored to be among the first of Gen Z to run for office in Georgia. We need young people at the table.

As we celebrate Disability Pride Month, and the upcoming 33rd anniversary of the Americans with Disabilities Act, we're using the hashtag #ADAFloorNotCeiling all month to remind folks that the ADA was just the beginning. Disabled people deserve more.

Happy Disability Pride Month! Disability Pride Month begins every July 1st to commemorate the passing of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) in July 1990! We celebrate because the passage of the ADA wasn’t an easy one. On March 12, 1990, disabled Americans participated in what we know today as the Capitol Crawl, the largest disabled protest in US history. Soon after, President George H.W. Bush signed it into law July 26, 1990. Every July, the disabled community celebrates the rights we do have, but we’re still fighting for the same rights other Americans have like equal pay, marriage equality, access to education, equal employment, and access to healthcare. Spend your July educating yourself on the disabled community, our cultures, and listening to the lived experiences of disabled people. In turn, we can all fight for a more accessible nation and world together, where we’re all treated like human beings. ♿️💙

Odd that people really think “Cis-gendered” is a slur…this term (coined in the ‘90s) means that your gender identity matches your assigned sex at birth. That’s all…sometimes, things really are that simple.

I want this to sink in—seniors and people with disabilities are going to bear the brunt of the impact. There are even studies published about this. We need generators and batteries and medical equipment. brown.edu/news/2020-10-0…
