The Disability Vote matters!
“Vote as if your life depends on it - because it DOES!” -
this was famously said by Justin Dart, the man often considered the father of
the Americans with Disabilities Act. This is especially true for People with
Disabilities. Every policy decision that impact their lives are influenced by
whom we elect - from employment to transportation, to the funding of health
programmes and social security, accessibility and so on and so forth. Yet,
ironically, majority of People with Disabilities are unable to exercise their
fundamental right to vote.
