The 45th Annual National Down Syndrome Congress Convention was amazing. Advocates from all over the country and world came together for the biggest, happiest family reunion of the year.
This year in particular advocates were mobilized to fight to #SaveMedicaid. Dozens of advocates, including myself, shared our story in this short video clip. Please share widely!

U.S. Senators on Tuesday voted on a motion to proceed to debate the healthcare bill. There’s still no clear understanding of what the bill would include.
“Senate Republicans narrowly prevailed on a key procedural vote on Obamacare repeal legislation, a big win for President Donald Trump and GOP leaders after their repeal effort was all but left for dead last week.
Vice President Mike Pence was expected to break a tie. Republicans will now start work on legislation, with a series of votes expected in the coming days and the outcome uncertain.”–Politico
