As MANY disabled people have pointed out, one way for @JoeBiden to foster better relations with disabled voters would be to adopt the @SenSanders and / or @ewarren plans. 1/11 #CripTheVote #RevUp
But absent that, and off the top of my head, here are some essential components that I could see @JoeBiden adopting that would energize me a bit. 2/11 #CripTheVote #RevUp
Change income and savings limits so disabled people on Social Security and other benefits can earn and save substantially more without losing benefits. 5/ #CripTheVote #RevUp
Go at least as far on health care as @PeteButtigieg with his “Medicare For All Who Want It” idea. I’d much prefer Medicare For All, but if that isn’t going to happen, let’s at least take a substantial step. 7/11 #CripTheVote #RevUp
Also, DO NOT throw any policy bones to enthusiasts for group homes, special “communities,” and mental health “beds.” Community integration in all things! 9/11 #CripTheVote #RevUp
It would also help a lot to hear a strong statement from @JoeBiden affirming the fundamental right of people with disabilities to be treated for #COVID19 10/11 #CripTheVote #RevUp #HighRiskCOVID19 #NoBodyIsDisposable
Finally, try if at all possible to hire some credible disabled people to help with disability policy and outreach, who can take strong action to prevent photo ops and encounters like this: 11/11 #CripTheVote #RevUp #2b1e82d02f61">https://www.forbes.com/sites/andrewpulrang/2020/02/04/disability-etiquette-lessons-from-a-campaign-encounter-gone-wrong/ #2b1e82d02f61">https://www.forbes.com/sites/and...
