Support HOUSE No. 136 to help create more employment opportunities for people with disabilities in Massachusetts.
Why is this important?
In 2011 the unemployment rate of persons with a disability was 15%, that's compared to 8.7% for those with no disability. Help make a change to this by supporting a bill to create more employment opportunities for people with disabilities in Massachusetts. Support HOUSE No. 136 to require companies who contract with the Executive Offices of the Commonwealth to commit to hiring people with disabilities and training all employees involved in hiring decisions on the requirements of the Americans with Disabilities Act.
