Queens Congresswoman Grace Meng on Tuesday, March 29, introduced new legislation that would improve interactions between first responders and people with disabilities. 

The Disability ID Act of 2022 would establish a new grant program for states to facilitate the placement of a discrete and voluntary disability identifier symbol on driver’s licenses and other forms of state-issued identification, in order to improve interactions between first responders and people with disabilities.
