Today kicks off our 3rd annual Disability Power on the Hill! Disability Power on the Hill is a time when disability advocates from around the country gather together on Capitol Hill to discuss important issues facing disabled Americans with their representatives in Congress. These issues include fully funding IDEA and increasing the asset limit for people who receive SSI. It’s one of our most ambitious events of the year, and we’re so excited to give a platform to so many amazing activists.
