This will directly impact our kids and you can make a difference by voting and getting all of your friends and family to vote - we have to be in the top 10 to get this issue presented to the new administration. PLEASE VOTE!!!! Hello Everyone, I am writing to ask you to support the next round of voting on my Idea for Change on Change.org. If you voted the first time, please go back and vote again. NEW ROUND OF VOTING BEGINS MONDAY, JANUARY 5 TO ASK FOR FULL FUNDING FOR MEDICAID WAIVERS - AND TO CREATE PORTABILITY OF SERVICES VOTE NOW - OR VOTE AGAIN IF YOU DID BEFORE! http://www.change.org/ideas/view/fully_fund_medicaid_waivers_for_the_development\ ally_disabled 1804 people voted to help fully fund the medicaid waiver program in the first round of voting on Ideas for America on Change.org. This level of voting put us in the top 3 of the health care category, which has given us a place in the final voting process to be one of the Top 10 Ideas for America. It is time to vote again - or vote for the first time if you didn't vote before. All votes from round one have been deleted - you must return to vote again. Go to the link above to vote. The proposal is for this funding to be included in the economic stimulus package that will soon be developed by the Obama administration. Funding medicaid waivers creates jobs while helping those who need the supports. IMPORTANT NOTE: MAKE CERTAIN YOUR VOTE REGISTERS.
