Joe Biden& #39;s Disability Policy Briefing will be starting any minute now. I will be live-tweeting the critical points (but i may not get everything sorry!). I& #39;ll do my best, and everything will be tagged with #CripTheVote! #AccessToJoe #Election2020
and we got a special guest, @JoeBiden #CripTheVote #AccessToJoe
"Everyone& #39;s entitled to a life of dignity and opportunity, including those with disabilities." - @JoeBiden #AccessToJoe #CripTheVote
"I& #39;m going to be a partner. A partner as we all work together to expand meaningful opportunities to people with disabilities." - @JoeBiden #AccessToJoe #CripTheVote
"I promise you, I think this can get done in a way that we& #39;ve never done it before." - @JoeBiden talking about implementing a #disability plan #AccessToJoe #CripTheVote
. @NyleDiMarco is now on - "I& #39;m a huge advocate because I am part of a large disability community." #CripTheVote
Now we got @PerlmanOfficial - "[The ADA] was a good thing. But it could use a little more, should we say....improvements."

Couldn& #39;t have said it better, Itzhak. #CripTheVote
"My dream is maybe the government could organize a convention for architects to talk about the...disability community."

@PerlmanOfficial is talking a lot about architecture and accessibility, and how arbitrary "codes" are not enough. #CripTheVote
And now, @SenDuckworth is up to talk about the plan! I love her. Sen. Duckworth, I love you. #CripTheVote #AccessToJoe
"Disability rights is not a niche issue." - @SenDuckworth #CripTheVote #AccessToJoe
Getting into the plan, @SenDuckworth is talking about Biden employing disabled advocates across all federal agencies #CripTheVote #AccessToJoe
We are going to have to go through Biden& #39;s plan more in depth on our own. Unfortunately, the policy briefing is being sped through (in my opinion) due to time. #CripTheVote #AccessToJoe
Wait, did I hear this right? Eliminating 2 year period for Medicare? #CripTheVote #AccessToJoe
MAJOR takeaways from the briefing #CripTheVote -
1. The @JoeBiden campaign *definitely* heard the voices screaming about #AccessToJoe
2. The language used is still a bit meh, but the policies spoken about seem +.
3. As @rwgreer said - this is only the start.
