#Medicaid is the first line of defense in the fight against #COVID19. We need to tax the ultra-rich to keep Medicaid, other vital services strong. Archive: Governor Andrew Cuomo @CarlHeastie Sen. Stewart-Cousins Richard Gottfried Gustavo Rivera #ProtectMedicaid #NoMedicaidCuts #MakeBillionairesPay

#CuomoforPresident folks: do you know he's trying to cut $2.5 bill from NY's Medicaid during a pandemic? I'm grateful to Archive: Governor Andrew Cuomo & staff for decisive work AND I beg them to not further risk the disabled, elderly & low income NYers #COVID19 is already harming. #NoMedicaidCuts

Congratulations to Bj Stasio who received a resolution from Senator John Mannion celebrating his induction into the Susan M. Daniels Disability Mentoring Hall of Fame.

Samuel wants to date, leave home, & go to college. But he drives a 350-pound wheelchair, uses a communication device, & can have a seizure at any moment. Determined to find his path forward, he seeks out guidance from America’s most rebellious disability activists.
