U.S. Rep. John Katko is leading a bipartisan national effort urging the CDC to expand vaccine eligibility to people with I/DD and DSPs, specifically citing data collected by CP State and its partners in New York Disability Advocates.

“While New York State recently took action to expand vaccine eligibility to individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities as well as the Direct Support Professionals (DSPs), many states have not,” Katko writes.
