.Rep. Veronica Escobar We need #CovidRelief now, especially additional #HCBS funding to help disabled people access services safely at home, not in institutions w/ severe #COVID19 outbreaks. The HEROES Act had HCBS funding, but recent proposals don’t. #DisabledNot Disposable

Join ADAPT of Texas & PACT for a Labor Day Virtual Event highlighting the demands of Community Attendants to the Texas HHSC & #txlege. including $15/hr, Health Benefits & Respect for their Essential Work. Mon. 9/6 at 1pm Central. #DisabledNotDisposable #CareCantWait #CareIsEssential

People with disabilities rely on #HCBS services to stay in their communities & out of congregate settings. But labor shortages have contributed to long wait periods that have families facing tough decisions. Tell Congress #CareCantWait for people waiting for essential services!

Qualifying for #HCBS is half the battle. The current funding allotment for these services offer unlivable wages that continue to exasperate an already struggling workforce. We need to #BuildBackBetter by giving these caregivers access to a living wage! bit.ly/3nq737D

For years, states have identified workforce shortages as a primary obstacle to #HCBS expansion. But with an aging population & 820,000 people currently on the waiting list,we need to #BuildBackBetter by investing $400 billion in this essential workforce. bit.ly/3nq737D

#TeletonUSA Cierto, la discapacidad no discrimina. Es la sociedad y las barreras las que discriminan. La palabra DISCAPACIDAD no es una mala palabra.

#TeletonUSA Si uviera una vacuna para la discapacidad, no la tomaria. La ignorancia y la tolerancia asia nuestra diferencias es la que necesita una vacuna.

.Rep. Veronica Escobar Senator John Cornyn Senator Ted Cruz It's time to #UpdateSSI asset limits so no one is forced to live in poverty, permanently #FundMFP to support #PWD & seniors to move back home, and #StoptheShock and torture of people with disabilities.

@RepToniRosetTX Community attendants in Texas deserve a raise! On Feb. 28, please include #txbudget funds for a $15 base wage in 2024 & $17 in 2025—that’s what is needed to support this workforce that keeps Texans with disabilities and older adults healthy and in their own homes!
