Massive Disability Services Day turnout at the Capitol. The major theme on many signs: “cuts have costs.”
AG Ellison currently urging crowd to contact his office if they see cuts from Trump administration.

To the advocates and support staff at Disability Services Day at the Capitol: Thank you for sharing your stories. It matters.
Our administration is committed to building a better, more accessible state for Minnesotans with disabilities.

This has to be one of the biggest rallies at Minnesota capitol this session - Disabilities Day.

Wonderful group from all over #SD45 visited for Disability Services Day on the Hill! They came to advocate for disability services & wage increases for service providers. Our most vulnerable Minnesotans and their caregivers need support. #SupportDisabilityServices

This is a national article, and it is REALLY easy to say "well, that's not here"... except it is. It is happening everywhere. #MNLeg, we are begging. Please prioritize the state's most vulnerable.
We keep saying it. Are policy makers listening? ‘People will die waiting’: America’s system for the disabled is nearing collapse politi.co/3paKiUE via @politico #AbouttoBreak

Headline: Doors Close for Disabled Adults.
We all deserve to live free, full lives. The #mnleg must go back to the Capitol to finish our work, including critical funding for PCAs, group homes, nursing homes, & hospitals. Critical worker shortages are a life & death problem. 🧵👇🏼

Time is running out for DSPs and people with disabilities. It’s time for the GOP, DFL and the Governor to come together and #SupportOurSupports. Disability Services CAN NOT WAIT! #mnleg CC: @jimabeler @TinaLiebling @RepJenSchultz @SenUtke @GovTimWalz

URGENT: The Minnesota House is moving their Human Services Omnibus bill closer to the finish line and it still does NOT include critical funding for DSPs and disability services!

According to @axios the "living wage" for a MN adult working full time is $16.12, according to one @MIT tool. Add a child and it's $31.89/hour to support your family.
DSPs are trying to support families on less than $15/h. This is why Disability Services are #AboutToBreak #MNLeg

Staff shortages are pushing disability services to the brink, with many providers closing group homes and cutting programs/services. Our industry is #AboutToBreak, and we need help! ow.ly/bxEH50H4btV

Direct Support Professionals were the front line of care and support for people with disabilities throughout this pandemic. Their sacrifice and service makes them more than worthy of ‘Hero Pay’ – at St Paul, MN
