These members of Congress were elected to represent the people; all of the people, not just the ones like them. What they are asking our government to do is blatant discrimination against the disabled.

Why should citizens be treated differently if they have, for instance, visual disabilities? Free speech is not a justification for a business to determine whose money is good enough.
