Plain language is a way of writing that is easier to read. It is more accessible to many kinds of people with disabilities. For example, people with intellectual disability.

The opinion lies about homeless people and deinstitutionalization. It says deinstitutionalization caused homelessness. This is not true. It also says that forcing people into institutions is not discrimination. This is not true.
