Protect 504

To: Gov. Abbott, Rep. Darby, Sen. Sparks, Lt. Gov. Patrick

From: A constituent in Big Spring, TX

April 22

Texas v. Kennedy case. This case is asking a Texas court to get rid of Olmstead and the Section 504 rules. Section 504 and Olmstead are extremely important to the disability community. Section 504 and its rules make sure people with disabilities can be included in schools and can see their doctor. Section 504 and its rules mean people can live in the community with supports and not be forced into institutions. If the court agrees with the states bringing the lawsuit, people with disabilities will lose civil rights. These rights have protected people with disabilities for over 50 years. This is NOT OK!
