The problem for the Democrats is that allegations of Biden’s declining mental state began during the 2020 Presidential campaign. Which means that four years of “MAGA Conspiracy Theory” is now “MAGA Conspiracy Fact”. Every last tweet and blog post of which is now eligible for recycling as evidence against Biden’s dementia and the Democrats for covering it up. https://lnkd.in/gMugc9x4 #JoeBiden #Democrats #Election2020 #Election2024

I walk into the polling place. Enter the voting area. Vote. Then I leave. Sounds easy, right? Not so fast! What about if you have a disability? Hmmm…what are your rights? -Accidring to federal law, all polling places for (federal) elections must be fully accessible for older adults and those with a disability. -Curbside voting is great…but not enough, says the ADA -All polling places (in federal elections) must have “at least one voting system that allows voters with disabilities to vote privately and independently.” -Voting machines that can read to you & allow you to cast your ballot by pushing a button are compulsory -If the voter has difficulty with reading/writing (English), they have the right to have in-person help -Poll workers/election workers must make reasonable accommodations for you -Finally…and please heed this if you are a poll worker…a voter with a mental disability cannot be turned away because the poll worker deems them “unqualified” Know your rights before Election Day! #DisabilityRightsAndVoting #VoteVoteVote #MoveTheBarriers https://lnkd.in/enZZfj5s

Election Day is here and below is a copy of a few last-minute reminders. 1. Don't forget your photo ID! 2. If you have a problem at the polls, first ask to talk to the Chief Election Inspector. They are in charge of that polling location. If you are unsatisfied, call the Disability Rights Wisconsin Voter Hotline at 844-347-8683. (Program it into your phone now in case you need it). 3. Polls are open from 7 am to 8 pm. Before you head out, double-check where your polling place is: https://lnkd.in/d5e-J6XV . If you are in line by 8 pm, you can vote. Do not let anyone tell you to leave. 4. Curbside voting is available for voters with disabilities who cannot access their polling place. Polling places should have signage about how to access curbside voting. If not, call your municipal clerk. You can find your clerk at: ttps://https://lnkd.in/d9Y7dR68 5. Ask to use the accessible voting machine. Anyone can use it whether you have a disability or not. It shows clerks these machines are important and should be set up and ready to go on every election day.

Since the election, EVERYONE is wondering what the next 4 years will look like. Now is our chance – as mothers and caregivers – to ask the incoming administration for what we need. If you could, what would be the TOP 3 asks of this new administration? Let me know below ????. ?(Please keep it respectful) #childcarecrisis #momswhowork #caregivers #election #momlife #workingmoms #workingparent

Last week I asked what you, as mothers and caregivers, would ask the incoming administration when it comes to what we need. I got a lot of great responses. Here are a few: ?? Incentives (like tax or environmental credits) for companies who allow remote work. This would allow women – who are disproportionately affected by in-office mandates because of childcare — the flexibility to be present for their families and not sacrifice their career. ??Paid Family Leave (for new parents as well as other caregivers) ?? Affordable and accessible childcare What do you think of the responses? Let me know in the comments. #childcarecrisis #parentalleave #momswhowork
