Unisex with a relaxed cut, true to size, S to 4XL. Garment-dyed heavyweight tee.

We are not a budget line. Roughly $930 billion in Medicaid cuts gets described in press releases as trimming waste, and what is actually being trimmed is home care hours, wheelchairs and the people who use them, and the wheelchair user in the tee read the phrase trimming waste the same week her chair repair got denied. This tee is the correction to the press release.

Wear it to the state house hearing on Medicaid, the disability rights rally, the wheelchair clinic, the congressional office visit, and the family dinner where a relative says the cuts only target fraud. It is a strong gift for a wheelchair user, a disability advocate, a durable medical equipment specialist, and the friend who read the press release out loud.

The tee is a Comfort Colors 1717, garment-dyed in 6.1 oz ring-spun cotton, soft and evenly colored, with a heavier hand than a novelty tee and three lines that read across a wheelchair clinic waiting room. Direct-to-garment. It bonds with the cotton.

Unisex, relaxed, true to size. S through 4XL. Colors: Black, White, Bay, Blossom. Also Chambray, Graphite, Ivory, Banana. It is the trimmed-waste entry on our disability rights page.

Designed and printed to order in the USA. Machine wash cold, inside out, with like colors. Tumble dry low. Do not bleach or iron the design.

Common questions

Is this the same as my care is not a line item? Same sheet, plural. That one is one person's hours; this one is everyone the press release calls waste.

Would a disability coalition order these for the office visit? Coalitions do. Every shirt is printed to order. Any mix of sizes, one order.

Which color do people pick? Black and Bay. White for the rally.

How does the 1717 fit? True to size, relaxed body. Order your usual.

Wear it to: the hearing, the clinic, Disability Pride Month in July, the parking lot where someone took your spot.

Fabric and fit

Printing and care

Printed to order in the USA, direct to garment: water-based ink goes into the fabric rather than sitting on top, so the print stays soft and does not crack or peel.

Machine wash cold, inside out. Tumble dry low or hang dry. Do not iron the print. More on the fabric and care page.
