🚨 ACTION ALERT: Nearly 95% of staff at the U.S. Department of Education’s Office of Special Education Programs (OSEP) have been fired.

OSEP enforces the rights of students with disabilities under IDEA. Without it, there’s no oversight or accountability.

Section 504 goes far beyond classrooms — it shapes how we all move through public life.

It ensures hospitals can’t deny care, polling places stay open, transit is accessible, and community spaces welcome everyone.

These aren’t favors. They’re civil rights.

In schools, Section 504 ensures students can learn safely and participate fully—through medication access, safe transportation, and inclusive classrooms. Without it, children risk being left behind.

504 is under attack right now. 17 states sued to gut it in Texas v Becerra. If you believe civil rights shouldn’t be optional, show up. Share this, call your state AG, support disability rights orgs, raise hell. The fine print is under siege.

Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act is one of our most important civil rights laws. From classrooms to hospitals, it ensures equal access + reasonable accommodations.

Disability is part of the human experience. Public means everyone.

Senator Tom Harkin helped pass the ADA 35 years ago and signed his floor speech so his deaf brother could understand it.

Today, those same civil rights are under threat. We're fighting to protect 504 because public means everyone.
