Advocating for children and adults with disabilities, this blog began during the 2008 presidential campaign to track the candidates' positions and records. Citizen advocacy for people with disabilities and their families is critical, and not just during election seasons. Don't let your elected officials play politics with your children and loved ones. They deserve better.

Obama vs. Romney: Weigh In
After a respite, Special Needs Truth is back to report on the last few weeks of the presidential election -- as always, with a strong focus on what this election will mean for people with disabilities and the families who care for them.
In this first post on the election, I have no commentary, but a question: Do you think people with disabilities will be better off if we re-elect President Obama or elect Mitt Romney? And why? I'll share my own perspectives in the coming weeks.

For me (I have a severely autistic 20 year old), what happens to Medicaid is an important question. I think Medicaid is more likely to be appropriately supported if President Obama is re-elected.
