Work requirements threaten the health, safety, and independence of the millions of people with disabilities who rely on Medicaid.
New work requirement policies go into effect on January 1, 2027, and AAPD is working hard to educate our community about this new policy. We will have many resources for you, starting with our new FAQ!

Delaying digital accessibility is unacceptable. It’s that simple. The Department of Justice just issued an interim final rule that delays enforcement of website and applications for state and local governments. Delaying this deadline undermines timely access to digital services for people with disabilities. We strongly oppose these changes and demand that the Department withdraw the interim final rule and restore the original compliance deadlines. If the Administration wants to make changes to rules, they should use the notice and comment process in order to hear from impacted communities. Read our full statement: ow.ly/XRUw50YOzpf
