  On July 26, 1990, the Americans with Disabilities Act was signed into law; this landmark civil rights law affirmed the inherent dignity of every person, regardless of disability. The ADA prohibits discrimination by local and state governments, provides standards for privately owned businesses and commercial facilities, stands against discrimination in the workplace, and ensures equal access to healthcare, social services, transportation, and telecommunications.

Thirty-three years ago today, the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) was signed into law, establishing the civil right of people with disabilities to live, work, and fully participate in their communities. Rightly celebrated as a landmark victory in the disability rights movement, its passage was a long and hard-fought battle. It was won through a campaign of relentless advocacy and action by disability and civil rights organizations and leaders, champions from across federal government and within Congress, and disabled people and their families and allies from across the country.
