The IDEA Compliance Report Card for 2023 is out. IDEA passed 48 years ago. Yet... * Only 23 states are in full compliance with the law. * 29 states have been "needs assistance" for 2+ years. Is this acceptable for our 7.3 million Disabled Learners?

Way to go @DorfmanDoron! This is a fantastic paper that critically examines the deference to third party preferences in the evaluation of reasonable accommodation requests. Significant implications re: COVID, perfume, and allergies cases. Great choice @michlawreview.
Doron Dorfman@DorfmanDoron

Excited that @michlawreview will publish my new article Third-Party Accommodations! It disrupts the common narrative about the scope of the reasonable accommodations doctrine for disabled people and religious individuals while centering lived experiences. A 🧵1/8 #CripTheVote

@AllisonFGilmour Very Interesting paper BTW ...did you look at whether the students were taught in an inclusive (with their general education peers) vs. separate / segregated setting? Which may be highly correlated with teacher certification. See National Council in Disabilities retort from 2018.

Looks like the authors replaced words with synonyms, shifted information in tables, and changes numbers by a couple decimal points. /2

This is such an important case that highlights the deep inequities and biases that disabled researchers face across the STEM ecosystem. So much gratitude to @Vivian_Cheung2 for fighting back. So many of us have faced discrimination in STEM and it is beyond time for change.
Kat Macfarlane@KatAMacfarlane

We need disabled scientists. A lot of us are watching this case and cheering on Dr. Cheung. As ⁦@OrlyLobel⁩ points out, very rarely do disability discrimination claims make it to trial. #cripthevote nature.com/articles/d4158…

Actual books for “Disabled People Transforming Media Culture for a More Inclusive World,” have arrived. But it is better if you get the book for free as an e-book via Open Access: taylorfrancis.com/books/oa-mono/…

"The problem isn't intellectual and developmental disability. The problem is fear, neglect, indifference & oversight." I just told the @HoCCommittees it's time for bold action. @specialolympics promotes social inclusion in schools in 150 countries. But we can't do it alone.

This legislation will improve transportation for all Philadelphians especially those with disabilities as parking infractions create prohibitive and dangerous scenarios for wheelchair users. #ISEPTAPHILLY #waytogo
Mayor Cherelle L. Parker@PhillyMayor

Today, I signed Bill No. 230489 into law. This bill will allow SEPTA to use camera-based parking enforcement technology on buses to target illegally parked vehicles blocking transit stops and bus lanes to decrease traffic congestion and improve traffic safety.

🚨 @uscensusbureau is changing the way disability data is collected which reduces national disability estimates from 14% to 8%! These changes will negatively impact disabled people and have moved forward without input from the disability community. 📢Action you can take below!

My expertise in Universal Design + passion for better built environment for people with disabilities has taken me around the globe. I was shocked when a major land use organization saw zero value in my offer of a free keynote speech. 1/3 #universaldesign #disabilityinclusion #ada
