Obviously, a lot of the right's rhetoric on Kirk is a pretext to attack the left, but some of it also shows how desperate they are to avoid talking about the economy, Epstein, or Russia attacking Poland. They're going to push this as hard as they can.

Accessibility is about freedom. It removes the shackles that prevent some people from using technology, entering buildings, getting information, or simply living life. When you free those who were constrained by barriers, you often end up freeing others in the process. #Accessibility #AXSChat

Brad Lomax, a disabled Black Panther and primary organizer of the 504 Protest, helped bridge the disability community in SF with the Black Panthers. He convinced both groups of the need for solidarity & paved the path to eventual passage of the ADA as a result. One of the great American activists.

ILLINOIS! We continue to oppose the assisted suicide bill that the House passed (but Senate did not). Here are some of the reasons why the #Disability community has coalesced to reject that bill. #PAS #DisabilityJustice #DisabilityRightsAreHumanRights.💜💙💜
PATIENTS RIGHTS ACTION FUND
7 Reasons to Oppose Assisted Suicide 
1. Assisted suicide gives insurance companies & governments the ability to save money by pushing lethal drugs that are less expensive than treatment. This has happened in Oregon & California where patients were refused coverage of life-saving treatment and offered lethal drugs instead.
One of the founders of the assisted suicide movement, Derek Humphry, stated, “economics, not the question of broadened liberties or increased autonomy, will drive assisted suicide to the plateau of acceptable practice." Canadian officials estimated that assisted suicide & euthanasia could reduce annual spending by between $34.7 million and $138.8 million compared to $1.5 million to $14.8 million spent on lethal drugs.'
2. Only 66 (4%) of the 1,657 patients who died by assisted suicide in Oregon since its legalization in 1998 were referred for psychiatric evaluation.
3. Inadequate pain control is not among the top 5 reasons patients in Oregon & Washington request lethal drugs.
4. A 6 month prognosis for death is extremely difficult to predict accurately, with many patients living far beyond 6 months.
A major study of physician prognoses in Chicago revealed that of 468 predictions,
only 20% were accurate in predicting when death would occur. In another study, "No group accurately predicted the length of patient survival more than 50% of the time."6
5. Patients who are not dying may receive lethal drugs. The definition of terminal illness under assisted suicide laws includes patients who refuse treatment and might live for many years, and diabetes has been listed as a reason someone received lethal drugs.
6. A CDC report reveals that from 1999-2010, suicide among those aged 35-64 increased 49% in Oregon as compared to a 28% increase nationally.
7. No trained medical personnel are required to be present at the time the lethal drugs are taken or at the time of death, creating the opportunity for an heir or abusive caregiver …

Illustration with a rainbow-colored background resembling the Pride flag, with the words “EVERYONE IS WELCOME HERE” written across it in white capital letters. Below the text is a diverse group of people of different races, body types, abilities, and gender expressions, some holding Pride flags or using mobility aids, including a person in a wheelchair and one with a prosthetic leg. The image conveys a message of LGBTQ+ inclusion, disability pride, and community celebration.

This is a black background with white images. At the top, in white capital letters, it says “Disability is,” & then under that, in rainbow caps, it says, “diverse.” Under the words, from left to right, are white figures to symbolize disabilty, starting with the wheelchair icon, the icon for sign language, a figure with a cane, a figure standing with no visible disability, a figure using a walker, a figure in a scooter, & a figure with crutches.
