ACB is thrilled to announce that Louisiana is dropping out of the Texas v. Kennedy lawsuit! This lawsuit aims to weaken disability rights by attacking Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 as well as the Supreme Court's ruling in Olmstead v. LC. Now that Louisiana is withdrawing, only four states remain part of this lawsuit fighting against the rights of people with disabilities to live and receive care in their communities. More than half of the 9 states who filed the amended complaint earlier this year have dropped out so far. Congratulations to the Louisiana advocates who have worked tirelessly to get their state to drop out of this damaging lawsuit!
If you live in one of the remaining states that are part of this case, ACB strongly encourages you to continue to contact your governor and your state attorney general to demand that they drop out! The remaining states are: Alaska, Florida, Montana, and Texas. Below you will find the contact info for each office.
