The Time for Action is Now
Rep. Dean Kaufert and Sen. Terry Moulton are circulating bills to lift the caps on Family Care, IRIS, and Family Care Partnership. The bills would also expand the programs statewide. They restore these programs as entitlements so every eligible person would have to be served. The bills would end wait lists for long-term supports.

Tell your story to your State Representative and State Senator. Is it important to you that the caps are lifted? How are long-term supports important for you to live and work in the community?
