Why is it that there is almost always pushback or resistance whenever a disabled person makes a request for access or accommodation?
LONG VOTING LINES SHOULD NOT BE NORMALIZED. LONG VOTING LINES SHOULD NOT BE NORMALIZED. LONG VOTING LINES SHOULD NOT BE NORMALIZED. LONG VOTING LINES SHOULD NOT BE NORMALIZED. LONG VOTING LINES SHOULD NOT BE NORMALIZED. It's voter suppression.
Dear Candidates When you're speaking to a room of people with disabilities telling us you work in disability and it's a challenge and giving us examples of discrimination we experience every day like it's a new revelation for you is probably not going to be very inspiring 🙄
I appreciate the intent when ableds call me a “fighter,” but like what am I supposed to be fighting? I don’t fight my chronic illness/disability. If anything, I fight ableism.
In 2016, we saw how Georgia's Secretary of State tried to use the #ADA to close polling places in the Black community. @SFdirewolf reminds us that using civil rights to discriminate against other groups is a clear abuse of power. #WhatsYourPlan #CripTheVote #RevUp
Did You Know? You have the right to vote independently and privately, but you may bring someone to help you or request the help of a trained poll worker to complete your vote at a polling station. #WhatsYourPlan #CripTheVote #RevUp
Literally I got my walker primarily for protests and voting. #CripTheVote
No one should be praising these long lines. They are a form of voter suppression. Voting should be easy & accessible h/t @The_Acumen #CripTheVote #Election2020 #2020Election #DisabilityCoalition #RevUp
*AND DISABILITY "Non-matching signature" rejections are often disability-related. #CripTheVote
Not everyone is equally likely to lose their vote. In 2016 and again in 2018, rejected absentee ballots fell along racial, ethnic and wealth divides. Read @columbiajourn Investigations, @USATODAY & FRONTLINE's report. to.pbs.org/30Nb1Le
“But the pandemic has redefined physical distance, challenging everyone. While able-bodied people have seen their personal space grow to six feet in every direction, people with disabilities—nearly 1 million in New York City—say their footprint has shrunk.” #CripTheVote #ADA
Polls are open 8:00 AM to 6:00 PM. EARLY VOTING in #Arkansas started today, October 19, and continues through November 2! #Vote #Election2020 #VoteReady #DisabilityVote
DSPs are the backbone + foundation of @ARSupportNet's mission. It is their work that creates inclusive spaces in our communities for ppl with disabilities. It is also thru DSPs that communities learn how to sustainably maintain those inclusive spaces while working to create more.

One of our clients wanted to dress for success during teletherapy! Miles got all dressed up to work on OT goals with Mrs. Kathy!
A small part of me wants to celebrate being on national news for the 1st time, but I'd rather there wasn't a reason for a segment on the pandemic's disproportionate effects on disabled people. But it's happening & we need to talk about it. Segment here: pbs.org/newshour/show/…
