Description
Olivia Keller, a fierce champion for people with disabilities, joins Dara this week for an in-depth discussion about her journey to the state Capitol and beyond! Olivia, a public policy manager for a national nonprofit, gives Dara the down-low on the Americans with Disabilities Act and discusses some of her biggest advocacy accomplishments, as well as challenges. Parking near the entrance to a building isn't a luxury for Olivia, who explains why being able to get her van into a parking spot for disabled people is an absolute necessity. The duo dig into a federal challenge to a state law allowing pregnant women to obtain disabled-parking permits and why the statute is problematic. AND: Olivia shares how she once took on Sen. Joe Gruters at the polls - and why! Plus, pumpkin spice, Crocs and dining in Tallahassee.
