I’m honored to be named Peckham and SourceAmerica’s AbilityOne Congressional Champion. Their advocacy and work providing job opportunities for people with disabilities are truly inspiring. I look forward to our continued work together to support Michiganders of all abilities.

That already sounds kinda crazy, right? Well, on top of that, SourceAmerica gets paid a 3.8% fee for EVERY. SINGLE. CONTRACT. In 2023, SourceAmerica got paid $100 MILLION in fees from the $4+ billion in AbilityOne contracts distributed to groups on their list.
