Some states already required these work requirements rules before *NEWSFLASH* It didn't work. Medicaid should focus on health care, not policing work status. We need policies that uplift and support, not ones that create additional obstacles. 💙 #HealthCareForAll #MedicaidMatters #SupportNotPunish

Medicaid helps people, people I care about and maybe people you care about. And more than 6 million people with disabilities & mental illness are helped by Medicaid. And now the weirdos at Project 2025 want to put a lifetime cap on benefits for these folks? Folks with disabilities? Absolutely not.

Add work requirements and match Medicaid benefits to beneficiary needs. … Add targeted time limits or lifetime caps on benefits to disincentivize permanent dependence.

The nonsense rationale behind benefit cuts and coercion fails to address the psychological and social causes of distress eg poverty and lack of basic support. The application of benefit cuts and coercion is discriminatory and unjust 4/4 #SupportNotPunish

Dunno about anyone else but I am getting some hate on the basis of AuDHD, likely thanks to @UKLabour whose 'welfare' policy fails to acknowledge barriers faced by ppl unable to work due to disability. @UKLabour rhetoric is fostering hate & division, betraying vulnerable ppl #SupportNotPunish

Many behaviors we label as “difficult” are linked to:
🧠 ADHD – impulsivity & focus challenges
😟 Anxiety – heightened stress responses
💔 Trauma – difficulty regulating emotions

When behavior is communication, the real question is: are we listening?

@clairezagorski.bsky.social I made this image into large 3”x3” stickers last year, and passed them out so people could put them in first aid boxes or wherever.
Any suggestions for improvement?

The image is divided into two sections. On the left side, there is text that reads: "What Happens After Release? Released from prison. No ID. No job. No home." This text is presented in a clear, bold font, occupying the majority of the left half of the image. On the right side, there is a photograph of a bus stop. The bus stop features a bench and a back panel that is covered with graffiti. Above the bench and in the background, there are trees with dense foliage. The image features a close-up of a person's hands resting on a closed book, what looks like a bible (gold foil edging). To the left of the hands, there is a block of text that reads: "They leave with nothing—and the cycle of survival work, poverty, and re-arrest begins again. SWOP Behind Bars helps break that cycle by providing: ✓ Housing support ✓ Legal aid ✓ Job connections Your donation literally opens doors.
