Many Americans are totally unaware that critical systems people rely on—which run on (and funnel!) taxpayer dollars—are being smashed and grabbed. This article summarizes what's going on. Please share it with friends and family so they help demand action.

@oncor@CityOfDallas@Johnson4Dallas There’s an equity issue when electric companies don’t apply the same sense of urgency to address power outages in low socioeconomic neighborhoods as they do for affluent areas.
Today is International Day of Persons with Disabilities observed by the @UN. Advancing access for people with disabilities requires intentional effort. DRC alumna, Delaina Parrish, eloquently underscores this imperative in her @TEDxUF talk.

It was great to discuss the ways @UFDRC continues to serve students in the age of COVID-19. Technology definitely enhances access but may also introduce new barriers for students. If not designed with diverse embodiments in mind, online solutions can reproduce ableism.
.#COVID19 has impacted #AssistiveTechnology (AT) access and training for students with #disabilities. In this episode of You First, our guests discuss how COVID-19 has impacted AT and what students and parents can do to overcome it. #podcast https://t.co/ktmYkSMHEt
We hope that this recognition will resonate with readers and encourage youth with disabilities across the U.S. to envision themselves as future @UF Gators! 🐊#TheFutureIsAccessible
Today is a good day.
It’s easier to be a parent this morning.
Character MATTERS.
Being a good person MATTERS.
This is a big deal.
It’s easy to do it the cheap way and get away with stuff — but it comes back around.
Today is a good day.

Disabled People Forever:”Due to our disability, we may need the option to telecommute to school or work.”
Response:”No. Not possible.”
Everyone 2020:”Due to Coronavirus, we need to telecommute.”
Response:”Absolutely. You don’t even have to ask.”
The only thing that separates students with #disabilities from anybody else is #opportunity. Please consider giving to the @UFDRC. Any amount small or big, what matters is that we show how many people support what we do.
