“I have worked with the disability community in my own state,” Sanders said at a town hall in Davenport, Iowa on May 28, 2015. “People with disabilities must have all of the opportunities possible open to them from an educational point of view and from an employment point of view.

America has 56 million people with disabilities, more than 20 million of whom are working age. More than 50 percent of Americans report having a family member or close friend with a disability. Fifty-two percent of Democrats report that they or a loved one have a disability, and for Republicans, a smaller number of 44 percent report they have a disability. Surprisingly, Independents have the largest number of voters who say they have a disability, with 58 percent saying yes. This shows that swing voters with disabilities and their families are up for grabs.

I share many of the same beliefs as Bernie, but he really needs to walk the talk and caption all of his videos. They’re inaccessible.
Hillary hasn’t captioned all her videos, but she has a lot more captioned videos than Bernie, who hasn’t got a single one, I believe? I didn’t dig deeply, but the point is: I shouldn’t have to.
I have a severe traumatic brain injury.
I worked for the Browsed clerk of Court (fl)for 4 years
I was fired when I had a seizure.
All Fl courts protected them selves and would not let me have an impartial jury.
The courts just protected themselves.
Please let this case show 54 million disabled are protected by these laws
It is a matter of great IMPORTANCE
