Tell the Department of Labor to End Subminimum Wages for People with Disabilities
Dear John,
It began with Section 14c of the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) in 1938. Originally intended to provide job opportunities to people with disabilities unable to find work in the competitive job market, this well-intentioned law developed into an industry that perpetuates the stereotype that people with disabilities cannot work in competitive and integrated employment.
We know that is false!
After a series of scandals and instances of abuse, neglect, and financial exploitation by employers, Section 14c is now under intense scrutiny not only by the National Disability Rights Network, but by the media, state and federal elected officials, the Department of Labor, the Department of Justice and others in the executive branch.
The Department of Labor (DOL) is now proposing a new rule that will phase out this misguided policy. You can help us get this rule approved by clicking the button below and sending a message supporting the DOL proposal.
Time is running out to get this done - help us make a difference by commenting on this proposal today!
