Trump's promise to end vote-by-mail is yet another attack on disabled voters
The president credits democracy superfan Vladimir Putin with the idea. Yes, really.

The disability vote has power, and it matters in every election.

This is a voting bloc that cannot be ignored. When people with disabilities are included and empowered to vote, our democracy is stronger.

We have previously shared about the SAVE Act and the SAVE America Act and the concerns that it will limit registration and voting for disabled folks and other citizens. Time is critical now.

The SAVE America Act was passed by the House yesterday. Next it will go to the Senate. Call or email your senator now if able. The National Coalition on Accessible Voting statement, plain language summary, & link to action is here: https://ncavote.org/resource/nosaveact/

A vote is set to occur the week of February 11th. The House could vote as soon as today.

We know accessible voting is a critical issue for our community. Thank you to the NCAV for their work!

Not only does this stand to disenfranchise women, this bill will impact #disabled voters. Many disabled folks face barriers to getting the addt’l documents needed including financial, transportation and more. #disability #DisabilityVote
The SAVE Act, the extreme bill that would make voting harder for millions of Americans, passed today in the US House. Next stop in our fight to protect voter rights– the US Senate.

When my grandmother lost her sight, she lost her secret ballot. Broken machines make this an everyday reality.

For Disability Voting Rights Week, I wrote a 5-part series on The Disability Perspective. Here’s Part 1:

What I Overlooked at My Kitchen Table (Part 1)
For thirty years, vote-by-mail solved voting for my body. It took a pandemic summit—and my 95-year-old grandmother—to show me who was being left behind.

An accessible democracy is mandatory. Disabled people are everywhere. So we must be included in every part of decision-making.
