The National Forum on Disability Issues was an historic nonpartisan event that took place on Friday, Sept. 28, 2012, focusing on the disability positions of the 2012 Presidential candidates. Edward M. Ted Kennedy, Jr. and Rep. Cathy McMorris Rodgers (R-WA) spoke on behalf of their respective parties to present their campaigns positions on matters relating to Americans with disabilities.

Ohio Senate Republican nominee Treasurer Josh Mandel and Rep. Nancy Garland (D-New Albany) on behalf of Ohio Sen. Brown participated, as well as Ohio Senator Sherrod Brown. The speakers discussed their positions on a wide variety of disability issues directly to the disability community. Frank Sesno, director of the School of Media and Public Affairs at the George Washington University and former CNN White House correspondent, anchor and Washington bureau chief, served as Forum moderator.
