Dignity In Pay (HB 793): It Is Time To Ensure Fair Pay For Illinoisans With Disabilities
Thursday, Nov 21, 2024 - Posted by Advertising Department [The following is a paid advertisement.] Illinois has an opportunity to advance the promises of the Americans with Disabilities Act by passing the Dignity in Pay Act (HB 793): legislation that would end the practice of paying people with disabilities less than minimum wage by 2030. This legislation represents years of discussion among the broader disability community and I am pleased to make clear that the Illinois Association of Rehabilitation Facilities, as the largest Illinois association of disability and mental health service providers, supports Dignity in Pay. Nearly 20 states across America have voted to end the practice of paying less than minimum wage to working age adults with disabilities. This issue cuts across partisan politics, which is why states such as Washington, Texas, Maryland, and South Carolina have ensured fair pay for an hour of work, regardless of disability status. Back in May, the Illinois House of Representatives passed this legislation with 78 bipartisan yes votes. IARF believes it is time to invest in the future of persons with disabilities by passing Dignity in Pay in the Illinois Senate so we can continue shared goals of creating job opportunities for people with disabilities.
