Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990

The Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 (ADA) is a law that protects people with disabilities from discrimination. It requires businesses, employers, and public services to provide equal access and opportunities, such as wheelchair ramps, accessible restrooms, and effective communication. The law aims to ensure that individuals with disabilities can participate fully in everyday life, whether at work, in public places, or in transportation. Overall, the ADA promotes inclusion and fairness by removing barriers that might prevent people with disabilities from being independent and engaged in society.
