Those boxes next to @SenBobCasey contain 10,000 letters from people with disabilities, their care workers, and families regarding the crucial need for #HCBS. Their stories need to be told...and to be heard. #CareCantWait

"I am a home care provider. We need Congress to pass the Build Back Better Plan because people like my daughter need to live at home and not in institutions. We need better wages for workers and benefits for our consumers. #CareCantWait @RepDanKildee @RepMoolenaar
About half of all COVID-19 deaths have occurred in congregate settings. Congress must fully fund #HCBS in the reconciliation bill so disabled people & older adults can stay safely at home with the services and supports we need. #CareCantWait @RepDanKildee @RepMoolenaar

We can build a system that works for people with disabilities, older adults, families, and workers – but to do so, Congress must make a meaningful investment in #HCBS. Congress, please fully fund HCBS in the reconciliation package! #CareCantWait @RepMoolenaar @RepDanKildee
People with disabilities and older adults want to stay in their homes, but HALF of states spend twice as much on institutional care as #HCBS. Congress must invest in their constituents with disabilities by fully funding HCBS in the reconciliation bill. #CareCantWait
