Bill > SR0003

This resolution, a Senate Resolution from Indiana, expresses sympathy and condolences to the family of Alice Wong, who passed away at the age of 51. Alice Wong was recognized as an artist, editor, and disability justice activist who dedicated her life to increasing the political and cultural visibility of individuals with disabilities and fostering a community based on joy, abundance, mutual aid, and care. She shared her personal experiences to highlight ableist attitudes and practices and was awarded a MacArthur Foundation fellowship, often called a "genius grant," in 2024 for her work. Wong also edited two notable essay collections, "Disability Visibility, First-Person Stories from the Twenty-First Century" and "Disability Intimacy: Essays on Love, Care, and Desire." The resolution directs the Secretary of the Senate to send a copy of this message of sympathy to her family.
