As an American with cerebral palsy, I believe in the right all people have to education, employment, healthcare, and most of all, being treated with dignity. For millions of disabled Americans, these rights are under attack at all levels of government. The nominee for Secretary of Education does not believe schools should have to comply with IDEA. Legislators are trying to repeal ACA, which would sever five million disabled Medicare recipients from life-sustaining medical treatments. I am terrified for the future of all disabled people in this country, including my own. I am a valuable member of society, as all disabled people are, and I stand against what is truly a eugenics movement being carried by those in power.
