The Americans With Disabilities Act was signed today (July 22nd) in 1990 by President George H. W. Bush. It was the first major legislation in the United States that legally protected men and women with disabilities from discrimination. We have come a long way in the past 25 years since the ADA was passed, but there is still a lot that needs to be done on this country and around the world to make sure that people with disabilities receive the same opportunities and chances that everyone else does.
