Ableism is a feminist issue

I am not Australian but, if you are, please consider sending this letter posted by Beppie at Hoyden About Town to the proper authorities.

The new parking permit scheme proposed by the Australian government stands to revoke permits from many non-visibly-disabled citizens who need them. The "reason"ing is that there is a shortage of available parking spaces for people who have permits. Instead of doing the not-stupid thing and requiring more permit-only spaces, the Australian government is reducing the number of permits. This amounts to cruel and unusual punishment for those with invisible disabilities (e.g. those who live with chronic pain).

Be on the lookout for more posts and information about what you can do to help.
