Republicans like Cory Mills promise I’ll be fine but when Medicaid is cut, I’ll be the one who bleeds.
Disability is the one minority group you can join at any second. If it ever happens to you then you’ll want these rights waiting for you, not already given away.

This Disability Pride Month, disability advocate JJ Holmes warns: Trump’s cruel budget cuts, backed by FL Republicans, threaten vital programs relied on by Floridians and their families.

FL Dems won’t back down — we’ll continue to defend the programs that sustain and protect our communities.

I survived 18 years on Florida’s disability waitlist.

If I can’t fix it, I’ll open a care home so broken it mirrors the system perfectly. Y’all won’t like what you see.

Please read my op-ed in the Orlando sentinel Share it. Then ask your legislators why they’re ok with this.

Proud as always to partner with @floridapolicy to raise the alarm about proposed federal cuts to Medicaid & SNAP. If passed, these cuts will devastate vulnerable & hardworking people across Florida. Contact Congress with just 1 click to say NO to Medicaid cuts at bit.ly/FVHaction. #FightLikeHealth

Over 25,000 Floridians with disabilities are on the waitlist for critical services they're legally entitled to. Some have been waiting well over a decade. Thanks to the formidable @jj-holmes.bsky.social for sharing your story to catalyze change. Join the #FightLikeHealth movement at healthyfla.org.
