A judge stripped community-integration protections from a federal disability rights regulation at the Trump administration’s request. Disabled Americans fought for decades for the right to live in their own homes and communities.

Disability advocates warn these changes could push more people into institutions by making the support they need at home harder to get. This affects children, adults, and elderly parents. Nobody should have to give up their freedom to get the care they need.

Annie Leibovitz was born #OTD in 1949. + Rolling Stone’s chief photographer for 10 yrs w/142 covers + Living Legend designation, Library of Congress, for her original contributions to America's cultural heritage + 1st woman to have an exhibition at Washington's Nat'l Portrait Gallery #photography
A color photograph of the iconic American portrait photographer Annie Leibovitz (born October 2, 1949), celebrated for her era-defining celebrity portraits and her designation as a Library of Congress Living Legend. Facing forward, she maintains a serene, knowing expression with a slight, subtle smile, looking directly at the camera through rectangular, black-rimmed eyeglasses. Her long, silver-gray hair is loosely styled, swept slightly to one side. She is dressed in her signature utilitarian style, wearing a dark gray, long-sleeved button-down collared shirt with the sleeves relaxed and rolled up past her forearms. Her right hand rests confidently on her hip, while her left hand grips the top of a professional, medium-format Hasselblad film camera mounted securely on a tripod directly in front of her chest. The composition places her centrally within a weathered setting featuring textured, dark green wooden doors and a rough concrete wall to the right. In the upper left background, a large, circular studio light ring glows with a warm, ambient golden luminosity, functioning as a halo-like visual anchor that contrasts with the dark, moody environment. The overall atmosphere is intimate and authoritative, symbolizing a legendary artist standing alongside the essential tools of her historic craft.
