Happy Labor Day to all my fellow disabled citizens. Once again, bend over.

A year ago today, it looked like there was hope that things might change, but as you know the world has gone to total shit in the last year, including efforts to finally end wage exploitation of disabled Americans; it looks like there is no relief in sight.

Before they killed the proposed amendment, did the Education and Workforce Committee consider or research the 10+ states that have made 14(c) certificate slave exploitation of individuals with disabilities illegal and what the impact of that was? They should have looked into that before they just dropped such a proposal.

👉🏻 Here are links for further reading on the abolishment of the Biden-Harris 14(c) Rule.

The war in Washington over federally approved wage exploitation of the disabled is heating up. Proponents on both sides are taking their positions on the battlefield. Have you contacted Department of Labor Secretary Su or your congressman yet? It's time for you to get in position, get out and fight to change this injustice against the disabled community. What are you waiting for?

“The Regulatory Equivalent of Abolition” for Federally Sanctioned Exploitation of Disabled Workers: “Massive Legal and Political Battle” Looms in DC: https://outofexileidr.vivaldi.net/2024/09/03/the-regulatory-equivalent-of-abolition-for-federally-sanctioned-exploitation-of-disabled-workers-massive-legal-and-political-battle-looms-in-dc/#'s

Update! New Information – Article by Politico: OCTOBER SURPRISE?: The Department of Labor is coming up on a year since acting Secretary Julie Su initiated a review of the 14(c) certificate program, which allows qualified employers to pay disabled workers a fraction of the standard minimum wage.

Labor Day is over, but this injustice has continued for 86 years. For all the disabled workers, legally being paid a dollar or two an hour, hang in there. Change could be around the corner. This installment is about wage exploitation of the disabled by corporations and the federal government.

Sorry, not a funny.

According to the rules – Section 14(c) of the US Department of Labor's "Fair" Labor Standards Act (FLSA) of 1938 to be exact:

It's perfectly legal to pay hundreds of thousands of employees with disabilities as little as two dollars an hour, as long as you obtain a certificate from the federal government.

Sorry to say, this is not a joke. It's a disgusting practice that, "according to the rules", makes it okay for companies to exploit people with invisible disabilities.

I was sick, and you said "You look fine to me".
I was sick, and you cast me off.
I was sick, and you used it against me.
I was sick, and you took my health care.
I was sick, and you battered and killed.
I was sick, and you fought for a wooden hammer.
I was sick, and you fought about blue and red.
I was sick, and you fought as the nations watched with disdain.
I was sick, and you fought the "wrong" while resembling it.
I was sick, as you fought for "all" but, forgot about us.

I was hungry, you said God helps those…
I was hungry, and you told me I shouldn't be.

I was hungry, and you had napalm bills to pay.
I was hungry, and you said the poor are always with us.

"I have watched in wonder as
The colours turned to grey
I've seen the metal machines and
The factory dreams
I just got to get away...
...the achin' in my head and the concrete bed
And the politician's velvet feel.

I have watched the skyline grow in
Defiance of the sun
We let it take us and we let it break us
Now the damage has been done."

Triumph - The City (Minstrel's Lament)

From many of us way down here in the abyss, it doesn't matter what color the tie or who's got a wooden hammer. Things are likely not going to change.

As walter Cronkite used to say, "and you we're there" #woodstock94 was great and Henry Rollins spoke to us.
