This week is National Disability Voter Registration Week. More than 340,000 people with disabilities in Wisconsin are eligible to vote, yet people with disabilities continue to face barriers that keep their participation rates below the general population, according to the Wisconsin Disability Vote Coalition. The week is part of the “REV UP” campaign: a national, nonpartisan effort to increase the political participation of people with disabilities. The “REV UP” campaign is coordinated nationally by the American Association of People with Disabilities (AAPD), and focuses on voter registration, education, and engagement.
