Attending the march in person could put my health at risk, so I’m joining in spirit as an advocate for those with pre-existing conditions. As a 32-year-old woman with cystic fibrosis, affordable access to healthcare is critical to my survival–and hundreds of thousands of others. I will continue to use my voice and my story…

  I am joining the Disability March because I have been unable to work since 2008 due to often debilitation fibromyalgia, depression and anxiety. My sole income is Social Security Disability, and I just barely make ends meet. Access to healthcare and mental health care are vitally important to me. I fear that the Trump…

I have a break in my foot and I suffer from RA so can’t participate in the Disability / Women’s March. This is my protest. I am abhorred by this administration, its blatant disregard for decency, facts, women, minorities, the sick, the marginalized and our environment. No matter what your disability, remember you have a…

In my 20’s I got cancer. My wife had insurance through her work. For all of my career, I had to hide my victory over cancer to get hired and my wife had to continue working to get us medical insurance since my prior conditions were relevant. Now in retirement, I have myasthenia gravis, prostate…

The Lockwood Resistance  (Michele Lane Lockwood & Darian Lockwood)

  Trump is racist, bigoted, misogynistic, islamophobic & xenophobic. A corrupt, morally bankrupt individual who cares only for himself. My daughter says he’s a Putin Muppet. He’s allergic to science and facts. He stands against LGBTQ rights, climate change, public schools, vaccines for children, women’s rights, just to name a few. And stands for stop…
