Celebrating 31 years of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA)

On July 26, 1990, President George H.W. Bush signed the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) into law, which prohibits discrimination based on individuals with disabilities. This includes employment, transportation, accommodations, and communications across state and local governments. The purpose of the ADA is to ensure that individuals with disabilities have the same rights and opportunities as those who don’t.
