Let Us Be Heard: Pass SB 259 for Disability Inclusion in Public Meetings
SB 259 ensures people with disabilities can fully participate in public meetings with no barriers, no exclusions. Right now, if someone cannot attend in person due to a disability, they may not be counted or allowed to vote. This bill guarantees that remote participation is recognized as “in person”, giving disabled individuals the same rights as everyone else. Civic engagement should be accessible to all. Tell the Senate Judiciary Committee members to vote to pass SB 259 and make public meetings truly inclusive.
Title: creating an exception to physical attendance and quorum requirements under the right-to-know law for individuals with disabilities.
