Over and over again we see leaders in the U.S. government make statements and take a policy stand that is contrary to the needs of the people they serve. The most recent comments from Kennedy about people with disabilities is offensive. As a person with disabilities, a wife with disabilities, and my youngest brother having multiple disabilities as well as being Autistic, I've reached out to his office to express my concern for his actions and statements. I still believe the pen is mightier than the sword and has tremendous power. I believe I can make a difference. You are all making a difference with your actions #Accomplices, and I am proud to stand with you, even if I can't be here frequently. Thank you to @Erin Corine Johnson and everyone here for sharing your voices.
