Should the US gov consider disabled minority?
The Small Business Administration has special programs to help minorities of different race and females. Government contracts give special consideration to minorities based on race, or if they are female owned companies. Why doesnt the US government give special consideration to businesses operated by the disabled and why are they not considered a minority? After all, the disabled are most likely the most oppressed minority in the country, where is the help for those with disabilities who are trying to make it on their own?
Public Comments
- They do have many programs for people with disabilities.
- Disabled are considered a minority in the same respect that women or gay people or maybe even the elderly are. except disabled people actually have a law specifically for them where the rest are covered under the equal opportunity laws.
