At a time when we should be focused on supporting the family and friends of those lost in this tragic accident, a time of heartbreak and unimaginable loss, he attacks vulnerable population instead.

This is beyond disgusting. Beyond despicable.

You can see video and quotes directly from him saying this

It's nothing to try to explain away "what he meant was....". He said it. He has long had disdain for the disabilty population and he is showing it on full display now.

Everybody should be screaming NO we will not stand for this.

*edit to add that Carter makes minimum wage at BOTH jobs where he works. Yes he has 2 jobs. Competitively employed. Works 4 days a week. To the maximum of his ability. This is not on his employers to make it sustainable.

So tell me to my face that you want to cut needed services for Carter. I dare you. Tell me that that is what's best for our country. Tell me this isn't hurting real people. Or tell me that you WANT to hurt real people.

Come at me. Come out and show who you are.

Earning less than $600 a month (which can't cover rent, food, transportation, utilities, living/social expenses in any state in the country) adding insurance payments is untenable.

It is crippling our most vulnerable. Carter is only one of millions of people in every state hurt and affected.
