White House Rule Would Cut Funding That Helps Disabled Americans Vote
Original: This White House Plan Threatens Funding That Helps Disabled Americans Vote
A new rule from the Office of Management and Budget would bar federal grant money from being used for voter registration drives, threatening programs that help disabled Americans register and vote. ProPublica reports the proposal is part of the Trump administration's broader push to restrict voting access, and disability and voting rights advocates are sounding the alarm over its impact.
Why now: The rule directly affects voting access for disabled Americans, a contested issue under the Trump administration's wider voting restrictions.
