#Accessibility matters. Section 504 matters. I’m closely watching #Texas v. #Kennedy. Disabled people deserve to be in their communities and at home, not institutionalized! #Section504 #RehabAct #RFK #Trump
The federal government is being sued by Republican states to try and stop updated Section 504 regulations going into effect. This is an attack on disabled people. Pay attention to all they do. It’s up to us to stop this nonsense and hate. #Section504 #RehabAct #Accessibility #Disability #Hate

More ways in which #Section504 protects Americans:
