Mindfreedom thanks Obama who signed a UN treaty to protect people with disabilities

I received the following information from Mindfreedom yesterday. And I did hear this on National    Public  Radio.  You may listen to that story here:  U.S. Seeks Senate Help On U.N. Disability Rules All Things Considered, July 24, 2009 ·

The US media top story tonight?

A war of words between the Cambridge police, a Harvard professor and

President Obama.

Distracted by the frenzy, much of the media missed how President Obama

ended his day:

Signing a global UN treaty to protect the human rights of people with

disabilities. Along with many others, MindFreedom played a role in

crafting the treaty inside the United Nations.
