National Disability Action’s mission is to elect leaders who champion disability rights, defend life-saving programs, and mobilize the disability vote.
“ A rural, northern Wisconsin town has agreed to once again use electronic voting machines that are accessible for people with disabilities following a legal battle over the issue.”

Great coverage of our work from @Newsweek
“When people lose Medicaid, they do not become more employable. They become sicker, less stable and more likely to fall out of the workforce entirely.” - @edisonmcdonald Executive Director N.D.A.

“What I’ve seen through my time is how frustrating the process is,” McDonald said. “How many times the government gets in the way of encouraging work.” And this bill makes it so much worse!

According to a poll published Tuesday, 83% of the public have favorable views of Medicaid. Just a few months ago, in January, that figure was 77% of the public. #Medicaid#Disability

The Senate is taking steps to pass the “Big Beautiful Bill Act” that has poorly designed Work Requirements that actually discourage work. Check in the video to understand why and below to take action. #MedicaidMatters#GigWorkersCount#RedTapeKillsCare

🚨 H.R.1 (“The Big Beautiful Bill”) passed the House & is headed to the Senate.
Electeds say it doesn’t cut Medicaid—but we read the bill. It buries brutal attacks on disability services in 1,000+ pages of legal jargon.
Here’s what’s hidden inside: 🧵
3️⃣ Medicaid Redeterminations
📘 Sec. 44108 forces states to re-check eligibility every 6 months.
💸 That means more people kicked off—even if still eligible.
Bill: https://t.co/dJD8mOEuvy
1️⃣ Medicaid Work Requirements
📄 Sec. 44141 = “community engagement” mandates.
🙅♀️ It’s just red tape. When Arkansas tried this, 18K lost coverage due to paperwork.
