This #DDAwareness2021, we celebrate how far we’ve come—but as this past year has shown, there is still so far to go to achieve our vision of true disability rights. Lasting & meaningful change comes when disability is part of the conversation EVERY day, not just one month a year!

We were proud to support this legislation. Thanks to @GovMikeDeWine, @Russo4Ohio, @PeralesForOhio, and @DODDohio for helping make this legislation a reality!

The signing ceremony looked a little different, but today @GovMikeDeWine signed into law HB287, my bipartisan bill that allows active duty members’ children & spouses with special needs to retain eligibility for Medicaid home & community-based services while stationed in Ohio.
