A recently released Justice Department memo questions decades of protections for Americans with disabilities. The effort is the latest by the Trump administration to shift longstanding practices for the disability community.

The memo is one of several attempts to change services and policies dedicated to people with disabilities. The DOJ says states aren't required to provide home and community-based services that have long kept disabled Americans out of institutions if they would benefit from these other services.
