❄️Chilly temps ahead! A #winter storm is impacting Missouri. Snow began moving in today & is accumulating on roadways in northern and central portions of the state. Snow may be heavy at times & there is potential for strong wind gusts through Tuesday.

This means #accessibility "testers" can still file litigation as allowed by the rules of the district where the case is filed. #CripTheVote #Disability

[The Arc of the United States @TheArcUS]

The Arc celebrates 🙌👏 the Court’s decision today that the appeal brought before it by Acheson Hotels is moot. The Arc fiercely advocated before the Court to ensure Acheson’s efforts to undermine civil rights tester standing were not successful. 🧵⬇️

These are great guidelines for working with #Disabled speakers on any topic but especially when the topic is #PeopleWithDisabilities. We require these things when we are asked to speak at an event. Truly we believe that all events should be #Inclusive for people with disabilities

[Disability Rights California @DisabilityCA]

CARE Court provides millions of dollars to create a judicial infrastructure for court-ordered treatment for individuals who have not committed a crime. Although it’s been promoted as a solution to homelessness, there is no guarantee of housing, further proving that one cannot solve a housing crisis through a forced-treatment lens.

Debra Roth, Senior Legislative Advocate at Disability Rights California, offers her insight on how California’s CARE Court will become a path toward institutionalization in her op-ed here:

[Disability Scoop @disabilityscoop]

Some #SSI beneficiaries with #disabilities say the government is clawing back benefits after they received #COVID stimulus payments that were supposed to be exempt from asset limits. https://t.co/4q1x71jzhr

[Disability Scoop @disabilityscoop]

With big changes under consideration, federal officials want to hear from workers with #disabilities about their experiences with a program that allows employers to pay them less than minimum wage. https://t.co/kfTH9bqow3

[Disability Scoop @disabilityscoop]

After an investigation found that #SocialSecurity is asking many with #disabilities to return overpayments that can reach tens of thousands of dollars, the agency says it will review its procedures. https://t.co/g3lZRrRsZC #SSI
