🚨 Disability rights are under attack in 17 states! 🚨

There’s a lawsuit trying to get rid of Section 504, the law that protects disabled people in schools, workplaces, and public spaces. If they succeed, it means:

❌ Schools wouldn’t have to provide accommodations (no extra test time for ADHD, no wheelchair access, no diabetes care in class).
❌ Workplaces wouldn’t have to adjust for disabilities (no remote work, no flexible scheduling, no accessibility requirements).
❌ Public spaces could ignore accessibility needs (buildings, buses, and services wouldn’t have to be usable for disabled people).

📍 These 17 states are trying to gut 504 protections:
Alabama, Arkansas, Georgia, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Mississippi, Missouri, Nebraska, Oklahoma, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, Utah, West Virginia.

If you live in one of these states, contact your state reps & governor! If this lawsuit succeeds, other states could follow, or it could reach the Supreme Court and hurt everyone.

This is obscene and OKSDoE head Ryan Walters is a petty, vindictive POS.

Ms Boismier isn't even residing in Oklahoma anymore. Boismier is currently employed by the Brooklyn Public Library.

Walters not only needs to lose his job(s), I wish someone would punch him in his oh-so-delicate face.

Clay Horning: Keeping a small man like Ryan Walters small

"It may even elevate Walters’ dunce capacity, because every time he says something idiotic, ridiculous and stupid, and he does it all the time, serious responses like Baker’s, McBride’s and Moore’s make it appear they’re responding to somebody with a valid, though different, point to make.

"A political catch 22.

"Damned if you do.

"Damned if you don’t.

"Far better is what McBride did and said in response to previous Walters’ silliness that actually does relate to the job for which he was elected.

"In the week prior to Walters’ state universities rant, McBride, in his role as chairman of the House Common Education committee, introduced a bill giving the state legislature a bigger hand in overseeing the state board of education.

"He did it in response to a Walters’ proposition the board adopt a rule that, in the telling of NPR affiliate KOSU, 'would, among other things, require school employees to disclose to parents any ‘material changes’ related to a student’s sexual orientation or gender identity.'"
