Congressional delegation offers messages for ADA 33

As LIFTT marked the 33rd Anniversary of the passage and signing of the Americans with Disabilities Act last week we were pleased to receive messages of greeting and support from all three members of our congressional delegation. Thanks to Senator Jon Tester, Senator Steve Daines, and Congressman Matt Rosendale for sending their greetings and thank you to their staff members Kailyn Roberts (Tester, Billings), Tory Kolkhorst (Daines, Billings), Charlene Redding (Daines, Glendive) and Emily Schneller (Rosendale, Billings) for taking the time to visit our ADA celebrations in person and deliver these words.

Senator Jon Tester:

“Hello and thank you for inviting me to the 33rd anniversary celebration of the Americans with Disabilities Act. While I’m sorry I can’t be with you in person, I’m grateful for the opportunity to share a few words.

I want to start by thanking LIFTT executive director Carlos Ramalho and all the folks here and in our community who work hard to support Montanans living with disabilities.

The passage of the ADA was a historic milestone for this country when it codified rights for those living with disabilities. These rights are fundamental, but it is the ADA that made them the law of the land. And it is thanks to the hard work of folks like you that these rights aren’t just on paper, but they’re applied all across Big Sky Country.

I’,m proud to have worked with colleagues on both sides of the aisle to write and pass bipartisan policy that continues to support disabled folks in Montana. Our “Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act” provided significant funding for ADA improvements, including securing critical funding for upgrades at Yellowstone Airport and Missoula Airport, where they’re already getting started on constructing ADA-compliant terminals.

We scored another win last year when the passage of the PACT Act ensured that disabled veterans who were exposed to toxic chemicals during combat will finally get the care and benefits they deserve.

And you folks know better than anyone that the work isn’t over. It’s critical that we keep up the fight to build a more inclusive workforce, community, and society. And no disability should keep Montanans from being afforded the resources and care needed to thrive right here at home. You have my word that I will continue to fight hard to ensure the Treasure State feels like home for every Montana resident.

Keep up the good work, and know that my door is always open.

Jon Tester
United States Senator for Montana”

Senator Steve Daines:

Dear Friends,
Thank you for the opportunity to share a few words with you all as we celebrate the 33rd anniversary of the world’s first comprehensive assertion of equality for people of all abilities. The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) is a monumental civil rights law that affirms all men are created equal in the image of God, regardless of their abilities. I want to say a special thanks to everyone at Living Independently for Today and Tomorrow for sponsoring today’s event in celebration and promotion of this historic legislation.

Life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness remain inalienable rights for all Americans in small towns, quiet neighborhoods, bustling cities, Indian reservations, farms, ranches and everywhere in between. The right to liberty has not always been granted in its entirety to the millions of Americans living with a disability. That is why the passage of the ADA is invaluable in our pursuit of a more perfect nation.

Today, 61 million Americans experience life with a disability – this equates to one in every four adults in the United States. The Americans with Disabilities Act ensures protections and basic civil rights are guaranteed for every man, woman, boy, and girl across the country. May we continue to celebrate and bring awareness to the significance of the ADA and remember that there is dignity and value in every human life. As President George H. W. Bush said as he signed this historic act into law on that July day in 1990, “Let the shameful wall of exclusion finally come tumbling down.”

It is an honor to serve as your United States Senator, and if I can ever be of assistance, please do not hesitate to reach out. May God bless you all.

Sincerely,

Steve Daines

United States Senator for Montana”

Congressman Matt Rosendale

“Dear Friends,

Thank you for inviting me to join you today for the celebration of the 33rd anniversary of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA).

Today is an exciting day as we celebrate not only the anniversary of the ADA but the wonderful accomplishments of Living Independently for Today and Tomorrow. Billings and eastern Montana have certainly benefitted from the care and guidance they have provided to the community of folks with disabilities.

So many of our friends and family with disabilities, not to mention our courageous wounded veterans, have benefitted from the protections of the ADA, and I extend my thanks to LIFTT for providing a welcoming community for them to access the resources they need to live truly fulfilling lives.

I commend the perseverance of those with disabilities and thank them for their many contributions to our great state. The ADA has truly improved the lives of persons with disabilities by allowing them to fully participate in our competitive workforce, collaborate with fellow employees, receive the same benefits, and advance to new positions. Our country is home to so many unique talents, and it is critical that we maintain the hardworking, innovative, and diverse workforce that we have here in America.

Again, I’d like to thank you all for the work you are doing, and if I can ever be of assistance, please don’t hesitate to reach out to me or my office.

Sincerely,

Matthew Rosendale

Member of Congress, Montana 2nd Congressional District”

Britany Hopf: #TeamMemberTuesday

Hello Everyone,

My name is Britany Hopf, and I have been an Independent Living (IL) Specialist at LIFTT since May of 2023. I am 28 years old and was born and raised in Billings, Montana. I love Billings and Montana! Billings is a special place shaped by the Yellowstone River and sheltered by the Rims. Nevertheless, it is a small metropolitan area where we can find everything from a bronco-busting rodeo action to the relaxation of fishing or hunting, you’ll be in good company around Billings. Before working at LIFTT, I worked as a phlebotomist. I changed careers to respond to my passion for helping others. I love having the opportunity to help remove barriers for those who have experienced different struggles in their lives.

As a teenager, I was diagnosed with PTSD, Anxiety, and Major Depressive Disorder. Over time my untreated mental health and inner childhood wounds led to substance abuse. I started seeing a counselor in 2017, and she helped me work through the root issues that led to my substance abuse. By working to overcome my barriers, I started my path to sobriety, and I now have the tools I need to manage my mental health. The road to recovery is difficult, but I believe everyone deserves the support they need to overcome their barriers and live healthier lives.

Like everybody else, I’ve lived a complicated life. To quote Marigold Wellington, “I live to enjoy life by the littlest things, feeling the grass between my toes, breathing fresh air, watching the wind sway the trees, enjoying the company of loved ones, a deep conversation, getting lost in a good book, going for a walk, watching my kids grow up. Just the feeling of being alive, the remarkable fact that we are here right now, breathing, thinking, doing.”

I like spending time at the river, whether it be floating or rock hounding with my children and our 4-year-old Pitbull Rocko. I am a very spiritual person; I love doing yoga, meditation, and crafting. I’m a New York Giants fan; my favorite TV show is Law and Order, SVU, my favorite movie is Jack and Jill, and my favorite place to travel is New York. I have three daughters, one son, two Pitbulls, and a Bengal.

If there is anything I can do for you, please do not hesitate to contact me at britanyh@liftt.org or (406) 606-1766. I am looking forward to working with you.

Best,

Britany Hopf
