Autistic person here! The statement is calling the effects of these disabilities, not the people who live with them, the threat. While it's still disgusting eugenicist rhetoric, combating such a manifesto requires us to *not* resort to propagating misinformative fear-mongering.

This commission statement refers to people with Autism, ADHD, asthma, auto-immune disease, and chronic illness as a “dire threat to the American people and our way of life”.
This is a manifesto against disability.
This is the language of eugenics.
