Donald Trump announces plan to change elections Trump made the remarks while accepting the "Patriot of the Year" award at a Long Island event on Thursday.

"It's very simple. We want to get rid of mail-in voting,"

"(Getting rid of mail-in voting) would disproportionately affect disabled voters, whose voter participation was boosted in 2020 thanks to mail-in voting."

Makes me sick to my stomach to see Selma Blair being honored and featured at a disability awards ceremony less than a year after being an unapologetic xenophobe and spouting anti-Arab garbage.

She’s done nothing to help liberate disabled people. I don’t know why folks keep platforming her.

I am Disabled.

Not "Differently Abled"

So call me what I am.

Disabled.

Stop using these other "terms" they aren't as wholesome as you think.

Disabled ISN'T a bad word and we're NOT something to be ashamed of!

Could’ve had
$25,000 to buy a house
$6,000 child credit
$50,000 business credit

But you went for the $1200 check that’s never happening. And now prices are going to go up $3000/year from tariffs alone, with no stimulus checks in sight.

Yes!! In hazards research (public health, natural disasters, etc), I have heard more than my fair share of researchers on diversity committees suggest or illude to "disabled people are just going to die" or "they are just a casualty" - if we worked together and included disabled individuals in (1/2)

(2/2) has a goal of ignoring/eliminating communication between federal entities and the communities they serve. I am worried that this proposal process is at risk. Without it, there won't be a seat at the table for the disability advocacy community.

CMS is responsible for determining what the coverage standards are for Medicaid/care. One way for the disability advocacy community to propose changes to the standards is via the CMS proposal process. If you haven't noticed, Trump (1/2)

BREAKING

President-elect Trump says he intends on nominating Dr. Oz to serve as CMS Administrator.

As CMS Administrator, Dr. Oz will oversee Medicare, Medicaid, and the Children’s Health Insurance Program (CHIP).

These programs provide healthcare to over 100 million Americans.

RSA commissioner. Everything was happening fast. Things felt like they were moving in the right direction.

And now, we have to work hard to keep what we have. This is personal. This is democracy at risk. (4/4)
