Thank you very much, President GHW Bush!!!!!

Excellent recap! Thank you President HW Bush, Ginny & Dick Thornburg, Pat Wright, Even Kemp, Sandy Parrino, Justin Dart, Reverend Harold Wilke, and many others who worked tirelessly for ADA passage for years. And thanks to commentator David Cappozzi describing a high moment in the ceremony (beginning at

Thank you Bush the ADA of 1990 was signed in my birth month and 9 years before I was born. Because of the ADA I'm protected and able to get an education I deserve. But the battle is not over. Everyday in colleges around our country discrimination against a students with Disabilities is prevalent.

Happy President's Day. This is awesome!

I just came across this clip. I was there on the White House lawn. It was hot & beautiful. I remember the security on the White House roof & the roof of the Executive Office Building. ....... It's been a long time since then (27 years). We've come a long way...BUT ... there are still walls to knock down & glass ceilings to crack.

That's great that the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 was signed and enforced. Unfortunately, the blind and visually impaired communities across the United States still faces the highest rates of unemployment, poverty and homelessness. About 70% to 83% of blind and visually impaired people are currently unemployed. Around 1 in 4 of these individuals are homeless. The ADA law has made significant impacts on certain groups but not others. Regardless of education level and job skill level, we blind and visually impaired folks still face huge negative prejudices and stereotypes from employers when it comes to employment.

Life changing event in history

Awesome

What a beautiful recap to watch on the 25th anniversary of the signing of the ADA. As someone who works to improve the lives of people with mobility issues (many of whom I call friend), thank you.

The ADA has been life changing, but there's still so much to go on the education of it. In high school we talked a lot about past movements like the civil rights and women voting, and back then was before I developed my disabilities, and I didn't know anything about the ADA, nor was it taught in my high school. I learned about it after my disabilities developed, and now I have a medical alert dog. Sadly I still get discriminated against because people don't know about the ADA law on service dogs. People think they can say no to me coming in. Scam "Registration Papers" have become so popular so people fall for that scam and take their pets everywhere, and many real service dogs have been attacked by these pets. Due to these "registration papers" people expect all service dog handlers to have them when it is not legally required and it is illegal for a business to ask for that or ask the specific disability. People also are miseducated on so many other things when it comes to service dogs.

Great 💏
