One of the most important laws of my presidency was making Juneteenth the first new federal holiday since Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Day.
Ms. Opal Lee is the grandmother of the movement that helped make it possible.
She made it her mission to make history, not erase it.

It’s one week to go until #LearningDisabilityWeek. The theme this year is ‘Do you see me?’

As we celebrate #PrideMonth2024, we honor the beautiful intersection of the LGBTQIA+ and autism communities. Both communities share a journey of self-discovery, acceptance, and pride.

ALT Happy Pride Month! 15-35% of autistic people are gay, lesbian, or bisexual. Transgender and nonbinary people are 6X more likely to be atistic than cisgender people.
