Oh, we can see where this is headed. And with 🇨🇦 following 🇺🇸 in so many things these days, this doesn't bode well #disability

Thank you for bringing attention to this. 💔 I submitted a comment and attached the letter from researchers but I don’t have the spoons 🥄 left to create a Resist Bot letter. If a disability ally can help out so we can get more Representatives aware of it, please share the link. Thank you. ❤️‍🩹
