Help! We're getting smoked by what's-her-face on disability issues!

She has enlisted Tony Coelho, the author of the ADA (not to mention a near-DINO from California's Central Valley ), in her cause. Inasmuch as people with disabilities are the second-largest minority voting bloc, just a shade behind African Americans, we need to fight back, and pronto. Is anyone close enough to Bernie's campaign to know who would be handling that issue?

1. There is lots on line about Bernie's this, in fact a quick search pulls this up from DU

2. I know her! We met at an ADAPT action in DC a few years ago.

It's no secret that Bernie has plenty of disabled supporters, present company included. But you-know-who is getting way ahead of us on stuff like ending the subminimum wage and employing Autistic people like myself.

3. One of the reasons I picked Bernie early on is his stance on disability issues.

He was always the only one talking about it.
He's been fighting for the disabled for as long as I can remember.
I'm sure his campaign will figure out what to do.

4. Tony Coelho, has a terrible reputation around here in the Central Valley.

Bernie, has done a ton plenty on this issue. My disabled son would never ever support her.
