@thehillpolitics: Rep. Jennifer Wexton (D-Va.) delivered a powerful speech on the House floor using an artificial intelligence (AI) recreation of her voice as she battles progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP), a neurodegenerative disease that has “robbed” her of her “full voice.” “Over the past year, the fight for disabillty rights has become a personal one,” Wexton said, highligting Disability Pride Month as well as her continued efforts fo advocate for the community. Wexton announced in September 2023 that she would not seek reelection in light of her health challenges. “I hope I can be a voice, even an AI voice, for Americans facing accessibility challenges and other disabilities because too often people see us for that disability. And in truth, we are so much more,” Wexton said. #houseofrepresentatives #congres #dc #disabilityawareness #politics #thehill #fyp
