What Are Presidential Candidates Saying on Disability Issues?

These resources will be of interest to readers curious about how presidential candidates are approaching disability issues:

• Candidate responses to AAPD’s Presidential Candidate Questionnaire, which covers a broad range of topics including civil rights and health care.

ANCOR is co-sponsoring and participating in AAPD’s 2020 Presidential Forum on Disability Issues when it is rescheduled. Originally scheduled for January 13, it has been postponed because of conflicts with the Democratic debate schedule. We will keep members informed as a new date is scheduled.
