This is a very serious issue, the economy is taking it's toll all over. I worry
about my ill & handicap waiver; we (the disabled) could be faced with very
little health care, which could mean poor health and or even death for many.
Yeah- I need to make some emails; rattle some cages hopefully, Sen. Tom Harkin
here in Iowa is a big disability advocate.

ACTION ALERT
DC people report to us that the vast majority of disability related funding
that was passed as part of the House Stimulus Package is endangered, and will
be jettisoned in the Senate version of the bill. Programs like:
independent living funding,
IDEA funding,
Vocational Rehabilitation
and other disability program funding
are all on the chopping block.
Please contact your Senators now! Tell them disability should not be put
last, and that these program are very important not only to provide needed
services but also jobs for people working in these areas.
