I just urged Congress to pass the Latonya Reeves Freedom Act (S.4865 / H.R.9401), which would protect the right of disabled people to live in our communities and receive care at home instead of being placed in institutions.

I'm writing this from a nursing home. I'm 34, blind, autistic, and multiply disabled — and I don't need this level of care. I'm here because community-based services weren't available to me. That's exactly what this bill is meant to fix.

If you believe disabled people should be able to live where we choose, please add your voice. It only takes a minute:
