John, did you know 1 in 4 adults across the country live with a disability? Around 25% of Americans face unique challenges in their day-to-day lives, and they deserve policies that work for them – not against them.
That’s why it’s so important that policies affecting people with disabilities should be led by people with disabilities: If you’re ready to invest in the future of representative democracy and support candidates with disabilities, you can rush a $5 gift to Run for Something right now. >>
Living with a disability doesn’t limit one’s ability to run for office. We proudly endorse, mentor and support pioneers like RFS alum David Ortiz, a representative in Colorado’s Statehouse. While serving his country as a U.S. army combat aviator, David was in a crash that left him paralyzed from the waist down. Since returning home, David has dedicated his life to serving his community.
