Block the Administration's Plan to Strip Rights From Disabled Americans

You need to act now to block the Trump administration's plan to weaken civil rights protections for disabled Americans. According to reporting on a secret White House meeting this summer, an aide to Stephen Miller laid out a scheme to make it easier for states to round up and institutionalize people with mental illness who are experiencing homelessness. This is not a policy proposal — it's a blueprint for mass institutionalization of vulnerable people, and it's cruel. Disabled Americans have fought for decades to live in their communities with dignity and autonomy. Gutting those protections doesn't solve homelessness or mental illness — it just makes it easier for the government to disappear people it finds inconvenient. Use every tool available to you to stop this policy change, demand full public disclosure of what was discussed in that White House meeting, and make clear that any legislation enabling forced institutionalization will face fierce opposition.
