Thanks, Mark, for this clear explanation of the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities and for your careful refutation of the misinformation spread when the Convention was considered for ratification previously.  You cite potent reasons for supporting ratification, the most important of which is that "people with disabilities are the poorest and most oppressed in any community throughout the world."  I hope fellow Christians will see this as a justice issue and advocate for ratification, especially in states where their senators voted against it the first time.
