Casey Annual Conference on Aging
There is newfound importance to this year’s annual Conference on Aging, as older Americans, people with disabilities and the frontline workers that care for these communities are disproportionately affected by COVID-19, suffering and dying by the thousands each week. When race and ethnicity are accounted for, the disparities in these communities is even worse. Join me for my annual Conference on Aging LIVE at 10 AM ET here on Facebook or online at https://www.casey.senate.gov/aging-conference for ASL and closed captions.
Casey on Senate floor: "A court that strikes down the ACA will be a court that directly attacks the disability community."
For people with disabilities, the Affordable Care Act is essential, preventing discrimination against the 61 million Americans with disabilities that have pre-existing conditions.
A court that strikes down the ACA will be a court that directly attacks the disability community.

Casey on the Senate floor: Medicaid is a lifeline for rural communities
Medicaid is a lifeline for families navigating COVID-19, especially across rural communities. The President’s efforts to decimate Medicaid WILL cause rural hospital closures, leaving thousands without access to health care services and causing hardworking Americans to lose their jobs. Congress must fund Medicaid to ensure all Americans in every corner of our Nation have access to affordable health care during this pandemic.
Casey calls on Congress to restore the Voting Rights Act
"The vote is the most powerful nonviolent tool we have."
On this day in 1965, the Voting Rights Act was signed into law, but it was gutted by SCOTUS in 2013. In honor of John Lewis, I'm calling on Congress to restore the voting rights protections that were the cause of his life.
