#DisabilityVote | EDF Media Release

 

From the 23 to 26 May, EU Citizens will vote for the European Parliament elections. This exercise, the only time when EU citizens vote at the same time, is an excellent opportunity to highlight the reality: not all persons with a disability enjoy the right to vote.

These are also very important elections for Disability Rights. The European Parliament has supported very important legislation, legislation that improves the lives of persons with disabilities all over the EU: the Web Accessibility Directive, the European Pillar of Social Rights, the European Accessibility Act.

We need to assure that the next European Parliament is a friend of the disability movement. We need to vote for a European Parliament that is a friend of the disability movement.

The next four months will be essential to assure that we will have such a Parliament! Join us in our campaign!
