.@GavinNewsom@Scott_Wiener@AsmPhilTing Please support a budget plan NOW that addresses the acute disability workforce crisis by accelerating the 5-year funding plan by one year! It's URGENT! #TheFutureIncludesUs https://t.co/ei8VpiAfRz
.@SenAlexPadilla@SenFeinstein support the SSI Savings Penalty Elimination Act (S.4102). Since 1989, the SSI asset limit has not been raised— forcing people w/ disabiltiies into poverty. Time to raise asset limits so that everyone can live with dignity and save for emergencies
I just wrote a @theactionnet letter: WRITE YOUR REP: Co-Sponsor the Stronger Communities through Better Transit Act!. Write one here: https://t.co/1hRKK40kPL
If we are to make good on our promises to the American people, the filibuster has GOT TO GO. At this point holding out for bipartisan support is simply wishful thinking. Share this post and let me know if you agree.
.@Scott_Wiener Californians with disabilities, their families & the #IDD workforce must be prioritized in the State Budget for pandemic relief & beyond. These vital services need to be available when the health crisis ends. Reject any funding cuts. #TheFutureIncludesUs

@SenKamalaHarris @SenFeinstein#WhatWeNeed is dedicated #HCBS funding in the HEALS Act so people with disabilities can access the services they need safely at home, not in institutions with severe #COVID19 outbreaks.
California expects a $54 billion budget deficit because of the coronavirus. Just as Congress provided relief for businesses and families, we should also help states and communities avoid having to cut critical services and lay off teachers, firefighters and other workers.
Those w/ disabilities, their families, & support network NEED YOUR HELP! @CAgovernor proposes $300+mill in cuts to services to the exact population we need to protect during #pandemic. Tell Congress to include us in #COVID19 relief. Go to: https://t.co/LsZPx6S2wM #WeAreEssential
I just took action to protect vital services to those w/ disabilities in #COVID19 relief bills. Please join me in contacting your Federal & State lawmakers to tell them #WeAreEssential & need their support! #HighRIskCovid19#IDD#SaveDisabilityServices https://t.co/SL6RpVGh5r
