“The United States supports the Plaintiffs’ Motion for Class Certification because it advances the important public interest in community integration.” 
Dirksen U.S. Courthouse, Chicago
The Justice Department stated, “The United States supports the Plaintiffs’ Motion for Class Certification because it advances the important public interest in community integration.” The Justice Department stated:
...due to the State of Illinois“refusal to modify [its] policy and practice despite the fact that individual plaintiffs have successfully challenged this very policy in five separate lawsuits underscores the need to address this problem on a systemic, class-wide basis.” The Justice Department further stated that the medical fragile / technology dependent Medicaid waiver program sets the maximum capacity at 700 persons while the persons with Disabilities waiver program has a capacity of 27,870 persons. “Together, these programs constitute a sizeable amount of the state’s community-based services. Plaintiffs’ claims will require system-wide changes in policies to ensure that defendant’s Medicaid programs allows individuals to live in the most integrated setting appropriate to their needs.”
Attorney Robert H. Farley, Jr. and his clients welcome the assistance of the United States Department of Justice in this litigation against the State of Illinois. If any disabled person has been denied sufficient or adequate funding due to their disability, then please contact Robert H. Farley, Jr. at 630-369-0103.
