Father, grandfather, lots of former things. Looking to be lots of future things, too.

Trump blaming people with disabilities really makes the lack of an outspoken advocate for people with disabilities in the Senate like a Ted Kennedy or a tom Harkin or a Bob Casey or a Sherrod Brown felt. Or an Orrin Hatch or Bob Dole.

Jimmy Carter has died. A remarkable man who has been on our minds a lot lately, for many reasons. What an example he set for everyone who has had to ask themselves, โNow what?โ

A disabled protester (with the same disability as I have, Osteogenesis imperfecta) was awarded $400K after being kicked in his wheelchair during 2020 racial justice protests. Let this be a precedent:

With Sherrod Brown and Bob Casey losing, Democrats lost two big voices for disability rights. Sherrod Brown was a huge advocate for lifting the asset limit on SSI. Bob Casey supported special education and spending more on Medicaid home services.

Iโve spent the last decade chronicling the
#Autism
rights movement and
#Neurodiversity
as a political movement. It had slow but gradual gains. But RFK Jr.โs nomination to HHS takes a sledgehammer to those hard-won gains.
