Maryland will reject this extremism. Cox is unfit and unworthy of the office he seeks. We want #MooreForMaryland.

Wishing you a speedy recovery, Senator!

The Access Technology Affordability Act (H.R. 431/S. 212) will help put more access technology in the hands of blind people--thereby improving education and employment opportunities and overall self-sufficiency.
Join the PWD DLC as we raise awareness for Mental Health this week!

.@usedgov says that five states with mask prohibitions “may be preventing schools from meeting their legal obligations not to discriminate based on disability and from providing an equal educational opportunity to students with disabilities” #ADA is #law

Mr. President, don’t come for @RepCummings, he is on a different level. While Elijah has spent his life fighting for civil rights, your administration has been focused on dismantling as many of them as possible. #OurCountryDeservesBetter #CripTheVote

Update: This is STILL a disgusting and racist attack on four American women of color elected by fellow American citizens.
It’s STILL ignorant, shameful and utterly despicable.
And it should be condemned by EVERYONE across the political spectrum.
#disabled #Marylanders deserve better. @GovHogan’s controlled @md_sbe board is actively segregating our votes. #CripTheVote
Changing the goal from two to five ballots cast by a BMD is nothing more than a token gesture for blind Marylanders. Our democracy is based on the ability of all Americans to cast a secret ballot. Read more at

Black children are people.
Migrant children are people.
Poor children are people.
LGBTQ children are people.
People who don't believe in our shared humanity must be removed from every level of political power. They are intentionally traumatizing children to play politics.

Learn why disability advocates say ABLE accounts were "badly needed" to allow people with disabilities to save without losing certain benefits. snip.ly/p85id9

We express deep concern that the governor indicated he will block future Kirwan funding. This approach dismisses the reality of the problem & jeopardizes Maryland’s economic future. A generation of Maryland public school children do not have time to waste. bit.ly/2WPnvS0

Mr. President, it's completely disrespectful to call @SpeakerPelosi names while on the hallowed grounds of Normandy. These political attacks were not only disrespectful, but they were wrong. The memory of America’s heroes deserve better—our country must be better than this.

This Memorial Day, let us take a moment to remember the meaning of this day. It is a time for us to honor the brave men and women who have made the ultimate sacrifice in service to our nation.

#MemorialDayWeekend is more than 3 days off – it’s a somber reminder of the true costs of war. Let's remember the fallen & reflect on living in a way that honors their sacrifices. I’ll be remembering my fellow IL Guardsmen like First Lt. Brian Slavenas & Staff Sgt. Bill Chaney.

My take on Trump and his cronies spreading that doctored video of Nancy Pelosi: It's sexist trash.
It's also a sign that Trump is running scared.

THIS: “Important as a mayor has always been to Baltimore’s sense of itself and its possibilities, the willingness of tens of thousands of us to commit to this city matters more.” baltimoresun.com/news/opinio…

Thank you @TaliRichman for this insightful article. According to the ACS, 19.1% of Marylanders who self report as having a visual disability fail to graduate from high school. This is absolutely outrageous and must change!
“My daughter was let down first by the school system and then by the judicial system.”
The parents of students with disabilities rarely prevail in legal battles against Maryland school districts: baltimoresun.com/news/maryla…
#accessibility matters! Thank you, Del. @jaredssolomon!
In Wheaton yesterday working w/ @RTMontCo/@RebldgTogthr helping a neighbor in need make their home wheelchair accessible. Turns out, I knocked on their door last year & earned their vote. Saturday I helped install new flooring in their home. #RebuildingMonth #FullServiceDelegate

The @PDFAssociation says "In addition to not being searchable, the [Mueller report] file contains no text, is not tagged, and is therefore not accessible to disabled users." @TheJusticeDept, this violates your own policies. Read more: pdfa.org/a-technical-and-cul…
