I am joining the disability march because I cannot physically attend due to chronic illness. It is important that MY voice is heard because the proposed changes to the ACA may leave me without health insurance and access to health care. I am concerned about the future that will be left for my children if…

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.
