A Trump executive order pushes involuntary treatment for homeless people; the VA denies that would include homeless vets.

If you or someone you know receives SSDI/SSI and you get a review letter — respond immediately. You have rights. Navigating a disability can be hard enough — consider contacting a disability attorney, many work on contingency. #DisabilityRights #SSDI #Olmstead #ADA #Medicaid #DisabilityJustice

36 years after the ADA was signed and I’m still fighting just to make the government keep their promise. The ADA was the starting line — not the finish line. #DriveForChange #ADA36 #DisabilityRights #MedicaidCuts #Olmstead

Dept of No Justice is rescinding a key guidance about the right to community living under the ADA & the Supreme Court’s decision on Olmstead v LC. And could force adults w/disabilities into institutions. Pure Evil. #Olmstead #ADA #CommunityLiving #Disability www.disabilityscoop.com/2….

New York photo of the day. Manhattan. 48°F (9° C), cloudy, light rain. #NYC #City #PublicParks #Winter #Night #CentralPark #Trees #HandsomeCab #Schist #Olmstead #Snow #Geese

Daytime scene on a cloudy and rainy winter day at a big public park in a major city, facing a small and lightly-wooded area where only a couple of hearty small trees are still hanging on to their leaves; the other trees, with their darkened bark standing in contrast to the light layer of white snow on the floor, include varieties of elm, maple, and birch; also prominent in the scene is a giant rock - half buried in the ground - of at least seven meters in length is actually four-hundred and fifty year old metamorphic rock called Manhattan Schist; the island is basically made of this rock, known for its strength and ability to support big skyscrapers; the sky is cold and overcast and it is still raining, but very lightly.

Daytime scene on a cloudy and rainy winter day at a dandy public park in a major city, facing a great paved stone terrace surrounded by nature; a small frozen lake on one side and a grand staircase and bridge on the other, the eighteen-sixty-four Bethesda Terrace and its iconic fountain is a work of art and a city landmark; there are about one hundred people touring the lower terrace, despite its being covered in puddles and slippery spots; the sky is cold and overcast and it is still raining, but very lightly.

Daytime scene on a cloudy and rainy winter day at a grand public park in a major city, standing at the edge of a small, frozen lake and facing a group of small Canadian geese; they are lined up along the cement wall of the terrace, presumably begging tourists for snacks; at the other side of the lake are the still-colorful trees of a small wood; at the horizon are the silhouettes of towers of buildings on the City's west side; the sky is cold and overcast and it is still raining, but very lightly.

Daytime scene on a cloudy and rainy winter day at a sweet public park in a major city, on a paved pathway facing a lightly-trafficked fareway, just as an elegant horse-drawn carriage makes its way past; in the foreground, there is a glowing lamp on an antique lamppost, surrounded by snow and slush; off in the distance, past a stand of bare winter trees, is the silhouette of a small section of upper-east side skyline; the sky is cold and overcast and it is still raining, but very lightly.

Are you worried about #Olmstead? The Bazelon Center made a guide to resisting DOJ’s harmful memo. It includes a statement for your governor and attorney general to sign in support of our right to live in the community: lnk.to/olmbkg. @bazeloncenter.bsky.social 📸 #VisibleAAC photo by Shira Wakschlag

The New York Times recently published a deeply concerning story on how federal Medicaid cuts are putting home-and community-based services, which serve as lifelines for people with disabilities, at risk. www.nytimes.com/2025/08/1…. #Olmstead #HandsoffMedicaid #HCBS

[ALT TEXT/IMAGE DESCRIPTION: The image shows two sisters: women with fair skin, dark hair and glasses. One has a long ponytail, the other has short hair. Both sisters are using power wheelchairs. One sister is helping the other sister remove her cardigan.]
