L.C. decision and explore its potential impact on individuals, families, and healthcare systems. Featuring perspectives from a family advocate, a public policy leader, and national reporting, this conversation provides context, examines the issues from multiple viewpoints, and highlights why this topic matters to patients, families, and communities.

An in-depth conversation with Theresa Sweeny, co-founder of the National Disability and Home Care Rights Coalition, about emerging threats to disability rights and home- and community-based services (HCBS) in the United States.Sweeny explains that the coalition formed to unite disabled people, families, and organizations across diagnoses, waiver systems, and states in defense of civil rights protections rooted in the ADA, Olmsted, Section 504, HCBS, privacy, due process, caregiver rights, and equal dignity, amid growing fractures within disability communities and state-level erosion of these protections.The discussion centers on a Department of Justice Office of Legal Counsel memorandum stating that Section 504 and the ADA do not impose a general integration mandate on states, thereby allowing states the potential of not meeting the provision of HCBS needed by persons of disabilities to live in the community and increasing the risk of institutionalization.Sweeny highlights the Latanya Reeves Freedom Act as a critical federal civil rights proposal that would create an enforceable statutory right to community living and stronger protections for people needing long-term services and supports, and urges listeners to contact their federal legislators to support and co-sponsor the bill.The episode also examines how narratives of “fraud, waste, and abuse” in Medicaid are used to foment public hostility towards marginalized communities despite the program's role as a vital social safety net from birth to death for people who cannot otherwise obtain or afford health insurance.The episode concludes with a call for broad, unified advocacy, including engagement with the coalition's unity statement and related resources, to defend the right of disabled people to live, work, and participate in their communities rather than being forced into institutions.Today's Call to Action:National Disability & Home Care Rights Coalition, in coordination with the Ohio Disability & Home Care Rights Coalition, has developed a National Unity Statement to protect community living, home and community-based services, Olmstead, Section 504, and the Disability Civil Rights.

What happens when you finally meet someone who understands how your body works? For Alycia Anderson and Karen Tamley, a LinkedIn introduction became the beginning of a powerful disability sisterhood. Both women were born with sacral agenesis, a rare congenital disability affecting the lower spine. They grew up using wheelchairs during a time when disabled children were routinely underestimated, accessibility was rare, and doctors placed devastating limitations on their futures. Then they met and immediately began comparing notes: “Wait, your body does that? Mine does too.” In Episode 151 of Pushing Forward with Alycia, Karen Tamley, President and CEO of Access Living, joins Alycia for an honest conversation about rare disability, peer support, leadership, aging, Disability Pride, and the urgent fight to protect disability rights. Finding Someone Who Understands Karen did not meet another person with sacral agenesis until her twenties. Before social media, finding others with the same disability was incredibly difficult. Meeting Alycia gave both women a rare opportunity to talk openly about their bodies, mobility, health, childhoods, and aging without having to explain every detail first. Karen describes that connection as a security blanket and safety net. Their friendship reflects the importance of peer support within the independent living movement. Disabled people hold knowledge that cannot always be found in medical offices or textbooks, and that lived experience can help others navigate healthcare, access, identity, and everyday life. Growing Up Before Accessibility Alycia and Karen remember life before the Americans with Disabilities Act. They recall inaccessible buses, oversized wheelchairs, buildings with stairs, restaurants without accessible bathrooms, and being carried into spaces. Karen shares that her mother carried her up four stairs every morning to reach a summer job in an inaccessible building. She also remembers putting flip flops on her hands so she could crawl across public restroom floors. Alycia had done the same thing. Their stories reveal how exclusion becomes normalized when disabled people are not protected by enforceable civil rights. Community Living Is a Disability Right Karen explains the importance of the 1999 Olmstead decision, which affirmed that unnecessary institutionalization and segregation can be discrimination under the Americans with Disabilities Act. The decision helped establish that disabled people have the right to receive services and live within their communities. Through Access Living and partner organizations, disabled people are supported as they transition from nursing facilities and institutions into their own homes. Karen warns that Medicaid reductions, weakened enforcement, and renewed conversations about institutionalization threaten decades of progress. Disabled people are asking for the right to live in their own homes, make decisions about their lives, and participate fully in their communities. Advocacy Belongs to Everyone Karen reminds listeners that advocacy is not limited to policy experts. People can make a difference by learning from trusted disability led organizations, sharing accurate information, contacting elected officials, submitting public comments, telling personal stories, amplifying disabled advocates, and connecting with a local Center for Independent Living. Her message is clear: Do not assume your voice will not be heard. Speak up anyway. Leadership Begins in the Deep End Karen credits her parents and mentors with encouraging her to take risks. Her mother often said they were going to throw Karen into the deep end of the pool and let her figure out how to swim. That mindset followed her throughout her career. Mentors including Judy Heumann, Ed Roberts, Wade Blank, and Marca Bristo recognized Karen's potential and placed her in leadership roles before she always felt ready. Karen later served as Commissioner of the Chicago Mayor's Office for People with Disabilities, was appointed to the U.S. Access Board, and became President and CEO of Access Living. Her journey demonstrates the power of leaders who believe in someone before that person fully believes in themselves. Disability Pride and Aging For Karen, Disability Pride means community, visibility, self worth, and being okay with who we are. It does not mean loving every part of disability every day. Pride can exist alongside pain, fear, frustration, internalized ableism, and uncertainty. Alycia and Karen also discuss the realities of aging with a rare disability, including concerns about mobility, transfers, travel, health, and future independence. Both women were given frightening medical predictions as children. Decades later, they are still here, leading, traveling, advocating, creating community, and celebrating every year they were told they might never have. Aging with disability can be uncertain. It is also a privilege. You Deserve to Be in the Space Karen's Pushing Forward moment is a challenge to step outside your comfort zone. Attend the event. Accept the opportunity. Enter the room, even when you do not know anyone. Leadership does not eliminate fear or imposter syndrome. You deserve to be there. You deserve to be in that space. Two Women, One Rare Disability, and a Movement to Protect
It's Disability Pride Month, and we're continuing our trip down memory lane with a brand new mini series featuring past podcast conversations with leaders who have reshaped arts and media through the lens of disability. The Trump administration continues to threaten the erasure of disabled people from American society, most recently by calling into question a decades-old Supreme Court precedent in the case Olmstead v. L.C. that enshrined a right to community integration for disabled people under the Americans with Disabilities Act. Now, more than ever, we need to lift up disability culture and tell disabled stories through every form of media possible. We also must ensure that media is accessible to disabled people because the ability to share our stories in our own voices is more important than ever.As we continue the struggle to protect our right to live and thrive in this world, this season, we're uplifting the journalists, podcasters, musicians, and artists who, every day, ensure that accessibility, disability culture, and disability stories are front and center. We'll begin with one of our earliest podcast guests, Sean Collins, to learn about why image descriptions in news articles are essential to accessing the news.We hope you enjoy revisiting these episodes with us! And stay tuned for a very special brand new episode to close out this mini series!--Let us know what you think with a comment or review!Visit our website for transcripts.Subscribe to Qudsiya's Substack, Getting Down To ItSupport the team behind the podcast with a donation

On June 18, Trump's Justice Department issued a memo claiming that federal disability laws don't require state level integration, guidance in direct conflict with the 1999 Supreme Court Olmstead decision. This memo must not stand. Time for Congress to codify into law the Olmstead decision. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
The US Supreme Court Case Olmstead v. L.C. ensured a lot more support for people with disabilities independently from institutionalization. A memo issued by the U.S. Department of Justice could take away support for independent living. Elizabeth McCormick, Director of Advocacy at New York Association on Independent Living, spoke with Sina Basila Hickey about this DoJ memo, why Olmstead v. L.C. is important, and the NYS response. image description: a photograph of the U.S. Supreme Court
OA1276 - Who could have predicted this? Us! The Trump administration has made their complete disdain for people with disabilities clear since day one. We've called it out before, and the natural progression of those efforts came to a head mid-June when they announced their intention to turn over governance of special education to RFK Jr in HHS (least trusted man in America when it comes to the needs of your child with a disability), continue dismantling the Department of Education overall, further reduce their investigations of educational discrimination, and, just two days later, their commitment to overturning major protections against forced institutionalization. What's happening, how did we get here, why does it matter, and what can anyone do about it? Tune in to find out.

Will we return to the bad old days of existence in substandard hospitals and nursing homes? Or will we fight to preserve our lives in the community? Sadly, this is not a rhetorical question. In 1999, the United States Supreme Court passed the Olmstead decision determining that people with disabilities should not be forced into institutions when they can be safely and appropriately supported in community settings. Or, in other words, people with mental and other disabilities no longer had to be incarcerated in oppressive institutions when they could reside in whatever type of community living was most appropriate to the individual. But in a memo issued in June, the Department of Justice's Office of Legal Counsel upended that guidance. It argued that neither the Americans with Disabilities Act, nor Section 504, two major disability rights laws, requires states to provide services in the most mainstream setting. Pushing Limits on Friday, July 3 interviews Eric Harris, Associate Executive Director of External Affairs for Disability Rights California, to discuss Olmstead and the threat against it. This Program is hosted and produced by Eddie Ytuarte. Click here for a relevant article.

In this thoughtful Sunday Edition audio editorial, Anthony Corona examines the recent Department of Justice memorandum on disability integration and community living, separating fact from fear while explaining why the document has sparked concern throughout the disability community. Using the powerful metaphor of “the dumpster is burning, but the house is not. Yet,” Anthony explores what the memorandum does and does not do. He explains that it does not repeal the Americans with Disabilities Act, overturn the Supreme Court's Olmstead decision or create new authority to force disabled Americans into institutions. Instead, he argues that the greater concern lies in the federal government's changing approach to enforcing disability rights and supporting community based living. The conversation looks beyond alarming social media claims to examine the long term implications for Medicaid funded supports, home and community based services, personal care attendants, transportation, independent living and the policies that help millions of disabled Americans remain active members of their communities. Rather than encouraging panic, Anthony calls for informed advocacy rooted in facts, careful analysis and coalition building. He urges disability advocates and organizations to educate themselves, engage with policymakers and prepare for the policy debates that may shape disability rights in the years ahead. This episode marks the beginning of a continuing series exploring disability policy, accessibility and independent living, with future conversations focusing on paratransit, home health services, Medicaid waivers and other critical supports that help disabled Americans live independently. Knowledge is our greatest advocacy tool. Facts are our strongest foundation. Community is our greatest strength. pisode Notes Notes go here Support Sunday Edition with Anthony Corona by contributing to their tip jar: https://tips.pinecast.com/jar/acb-sunday-edition Find out more at https://acb-sunday-edition.pinecast.co This podcast is powered by Pinecast.

In this exciting 70th episode of Harnessing Your Wealth, host Billy Peterson interviews Jason Olmstead, a prominent horse trainer. Jason Olmstead grew up surrounded by horse racing, with his grandparents training racehorses. His family’s roots in the industry laid the foundation for his future career. “I fell in love with it from day one,” Jason recalls, reflecting on his childhood. Jason shares insights on training philosophies, the significance of soundness in horses, and the loyalty of quarter horse owners. Jason's training career has been marked by impressive achievements. His ability to maintain long-term relationships with clients has been a key factor in his success. “What I’m most proud of is we still train for a lot of the same people that we originally trained for that gave us our first chances,” he shares. This loyalty and dedication to his clients and their horses have fostered a supportive community around his training stable. Takeaways Harnessing Your Wealth is about more than just money. Jason Olmsted’s journey in horse racing began with his grandparents. The importance of family support in a racing career. Quarter horses often have more loyal owners than thoroughbreds. Building relationships with riders is key to a successful stable. Learning from mistakes is part of the training process. Fear of failure can drive success in competitive environments. The next generation of riders is essential for the future of racing. About our Guest: After a successful career as a jockey, Jason transitioned to training, a move that seemed almost inevitable. Jason Olmstead and his wife Amber own Circle JA Racing Ranch in Pryor, Okla. He had the most Quarter Horse wins of any trainer here in 2023. Jason grew up in horse racing. His grandfather was a trainer and all he ever wanted to do was be a jockey. He has the honor of winning the AQHA Racing's 2021 Blane Schvaneveldt Champion Trainer award.

Are Coronal Mass Ejections dangerous to life on Earth? When are we finally going to plunge through the sulfuric acid clouds to measure the atmosphere of Venus. And what's up with 'Oumuamua and 3I/Atlas? To find out, Dr. Charles Liu and co-host Allen Liu welcome astrobiologist Dr. David Grinspoon, aka Dr. FunkySpoon. As always, we start with the day's joyfully cool cosmic thing: the arrival at Earth of two consecutive Coronal Mass Ejections on Nov. 11, 2025, creating an amazing display of Northern and Sothern Lights. In the US, aurora were seen as far south as Texas and even Central America, and yet Chuck, Alan and David were all frustrated by clouds in their own attempts to see them! Luckily, they've each already seen auroras with their own eyes, a viewing event David likens to seeing a total solar eclipse. David discusses how solar flares can impact human technology, but that while solar flares from other stars could be dangerous for life on their planets, at this point in our sun's lifetime, they are unlikely to wipe out life on Earth. Chuck shares aurora images that were taken by our previous guest, astrophotographer Elliot Severn. For our audience questions this week, we're answering questions given to Chuck while he was presenting at an event in Erie, PA. The first question Chuck asks David is, “When we have interstellar visitors like 'Oumuamua and 3I/Atlas, [1] why are they moving so fast in our space? They seem to defy gravity [2] How can they know what 3I/atlas is made of but not the density or materials?” David explains why the extreme speed at which they are moving is actually proof that they are interstellar objects and not something else. He also discusses how we use spectroscopy to determine what they're made of the same way we determine what distant stars and exoplanets are made of. Our next question from Erie, PA is, “Is there a mathematical probability or formula to predict the likelihood of life existing int he universe? In other words, has someone developed a model to predict how many unique things need to happen for life to evolve?” David explains the Drake Equation, a series of questions that help astrobiologists assess the probability of intelligent life in the galaxy. Our last question from Erie is, “If humans find life on a different planet, would we actually understand how to coexist with the information, or will world leaders hide the truth from us?” David points out – as someone who has helped devise astrobiology policy – that the response depends in part on the specifics of the discovery, like how far away that life is. But would the government be able to hide it? David says that the scientists who discover it would be shouting it from the rooftops: “How long would it take to type it and hit send?” And as Chuck points out, the very act of the government trying to censor it would turbocharge the speed at which scientists would get the news out. The real problem, David says, is the potential of each discovery being overhyped by journalists, leading to public burnout. He brings up two examples of overhype: the discovery of possible biosignatures in iron nodules on the Martian rock Cheyava Falls in 2024 by the Perseverance Rover, and the presence of dimethyl sulphide in the atmospheric composition of exoplanet K2-18 b. Next, we turn to David's “second favorite planet,” Venus, which he has studied and written about extensively. David shows us the first book he ever wrote, “Venus Revealed” and talks about upcoming missions to Venus: two from the US, DAVINCI and VERITAS; a European Space Agency mission named EnVision; a Venus Orbiter Mission by India's ISRO, and a private Rocket Lab mission to Venus. David, who is involved with the DAVINCI mission, tells us about the plan to plunge through the sulfuric acid clouds to measure the Venusian atmosphere and surface with modern instruments for the first time. We end with a discussion of the anti-science cycle we're going through, and David shares why he thinks this moment is so unusual and scary, but also why there is reason for hope. Chuck talks about why scientists take the long perspective, and David reminds us of the huge worldwide support for the exploration of space.

By Adam Turteltaub What do a secret wedding and Richard Nixon have in common with HIPAA? A lot more than you might think, shares Bailey Mack, Chief Compliance Officer at Together for Youth. In this podcast she tells us the interesting history of privacy and the law. We begin in 1890 when a photographer trespassed to photograph a wedding he wasn't supposed to be photographing. Thirty eight years later in the Olmstead case, wiretapping wasn't deemed intrusive because no one entered the room. It was as if a privacy violation could occur only if there was trespassing involved. That began to change in the 1960s in which thinking evolved and the idea gained currency that privacy was about violations of the person's right to privacy, rather than to property. Watergate led to further changes in which citizens were given access to government records about them. And, since then, more legislation has come and likely will. Listen in to learn more, and if you're an SCCE or HCCA member, don't miss her article in Compliance & Ethics Professional® magazine.

In this week's episode, host Daniel Raimi discusses subsidies for carbon capture and storage (CCS) with Sheila Olmstead, a professor at the Cornell Jeb E. Brooks School of Public Policy and a senior faculty fellow at the Cornell Atkinson Center for Sustainability. Olmstead evaluates the complicated nature of the 45Q policy, a federal subsidy available to firms that implement CCS. While CCS subsidy programs promote the reduction of carbon emissions, Olmstead identifies these subsidies as having the potential to financially burden the federal government, discourage clean energy projects, and motivate more pollution.

Episode 3642: Shana Olmstead reframes anxiety not as a flaw to fix but as a spiritual signal, a gentle (or not-so-gentle) nudge toward alignment, authenticity, and inner truth. Through practices like mindfulness and meditation, anxiety becomes a guide that reveals ego patterns, highlights necessary life changes, and supports conscious evolution. Read along with the original article(s) here: https://shanaolmstead.com/2019/04/30/anxiety-into-awakening/ Quotes to ponder: "Anxiety is a call to wake up. To connect with your deeper wisdom. To stop doing things that are creating misalignment internally and start doing things that bring you closer to your truth." "This anxiety you feel is your higher self letting you know that some things need to change. You didn't do anything wrong, you were just unconscious of your truth." "Without this gift of anxiety we would go through life numb and asleep, never becoming aware of the discomfort that can lead us to transformation and expansion."
