Take the Advocacy Challenge! 

LICIL is committed to advancing public policy that preserves and promotes disability equality, but we can’t do it alone. We need you.  Legal, social, economic and civil rights are essential to personal liberty and to the freedom of our community as a whole; and our voices have definite impact, especially when we raise them together.  Add your voice to the call for legislation and policy decisions that recognize Disability rights as civil rights and empower us to live, learn, work, play and vote without limits. Are you in?

 Action Alert: Urge Congress to Support a 3-Year, Clean Extension of the Enhanced Health Care Tax Credit

We’re sharing an important Action Alert in coordination with Families USA and national partners regarding a critical vote in the U.S. House that could impact affordable health coverage for millions.
In December, House Democrats, joined by four Republicans, passed a discharge petition to bring a clean three-year extension of the enhanced premium tax credits to the House floor. The House could vote on this bill as soon as today, and the outcome remains uncertain.
