No disabled person deserves to live in poverty. No disabled person deserves to barely get by and not have any luxuries in life whatsoever. Many of us can't work and that's not our fault. Just because some aren't able to sacrifice our life to labor doesn't mean we should suffer.

Let this sink in: ICE agents reportedly blocked the emergency entrance of a Los Angeles hospital for TWO HOURS, forcing ambulances carrying people who needed emergency care to go elsewhere.
This isnโt law enforcement. This is a reckless abuse of power that put innocent peopleโs lives at risk.
An ambulance entrance is not a political battleground. A hospital emergency room is not an immigration checkpoint.๏ฟผ
And federal agents do not get to hold an entire communityโs access to emergency medical care hostage.
Imagine being in an ambulance, fighting for your life, only to be diverted because federal agents decided their operation mattered more than emergency access.
Where is the humanity? Where is the accountability? And where is the line that these agents are no longer allowed to cross?
You cannot claim to be protecting America while putting Americansโ lives in danger.๏ฟผ
This isnโt making America great. Itโs making America cruel. And anyone defending this should be ashamed.๏ฟผ
