Not a big Black Friday/Cyber Monday person but some medical aids and supplements and specialized foods I need are on sale and if I could get some, it would make the rest of the year a lot easier.

Also what are you doing about it, from an advocacy perspective, other than blaming disabled patients' health on "not being social" when actually there is no bus (or not accessible due to missing sidewalks, etc) no train, accessible transit is $6+ each way, never has seats

DOJ could try again, but there are other headwinds.
