Summary

Trump has launched broad attacks on disability protections, including anti-diversity executive orders, proposed special education rollbacks, and potential cuts to Medicaid, Social Security, and Medicare.

Disability advocates warn these actions could undo decades of progress, disproportionately harming millions who rely on federal support.

Trump’s rhetoric, linking diversity hiring to tragedies, has further alarmed experts, who see echoes of eugenics in his policies.

    It is worth noting that gifted education also falls under special education. The last thing this country needs is another generation whose gifted population is deprived of an appropriate education.

    there are no exceptions.
