TRANSCRIPT
Minnesota’s support systems helping people with disabilities, those with chronic illness, and older adults have been collapsing for several years. Many people relying on the help of others, like me, have been harmed or are in danger.

Many Minnesotans remember the 35W bridge collapse in Minneapolis. The "bridges" that I and others rely on have collapsed or are likely to collapse in the very near future. Many of us have fallen through the cracks into the icy cold river, and are being pulled underwater gasping for breath, are being swept downstream to an unknown fate, while our panicked families and friends risk their health and safety scrambling to save and protect us.

You can help us improve health, safety, and dignity for all Minnesotans. Connect, inform, encourage, and empower! Thank you!
