In my view, if right-wing Supreme Court justices want to make public policy they should quit the Supreme Court and run for political office.

The fight for disability rights didn’t start or end with the ADA.

We can create policies for access and equality, but we can’t legislate attitudes.

The ADA won’t be fully realized until we move toward an unquestioned understanding that disabled lives are worth living.

[Emily Ladau @emily_ladau]

Aesthetics over access is an appallingly ignorant and shallow line of thinking. The members of these homeowners associations are so quick to judge that they don’t even stop to consider they may one day also need access.

[Sen. Bernie Sanders @SenSanders]

We are spending $80 billion locking people up. Think about what it would mean if we invested that money in our people instead of more jails. https://t.co/Rd8DgfudcC

Today is Disability Day of Mourning. It is sickening that so many people with disabilities have lost their lives to the inhumanity of their caretakers and family members. We remember them today and every day and will work to make sure that this number rises no more. #DDoM2018

[Tammy Duckworth @SenDuckworth]

Rolling back Americans with disabilities’ civil rights because some businesses—who have had nearly 30 years to comply with the #ADA—don’t want to make their facilities fully accessible for all is unjust and disgraceful. We must #StopHR620 https://t.co/6IcgJBd5Ua

"Number one: I hate the Trump budget." Yeah, that about sums it up.

At the Congressional Reception and visiting with the NCIL board. Glad to see some of our legislators understanding that disability rights are civil rights. #HandsOffMyADA @NCILAdvocacy

You know, when I said I wanted the real world to be more like Harry Potter I just meant the teleportation and the magic stuff, not the entire plot of book 5 where the government refuses to do anything about a deadly threat so the teenagers have to rise up and fight back.

[Autistic Self Advocacy Network @autselfadvocacy]

We need effective, fact-based policies on gun violence. Policies targeting people with mental health disabilities are not backed by data, and distract us from changes that could actually help.
