Happy Birthday to the Americans With Disabilities Act

I know I suck at blogging big time(just like my tweet page) I neglect.

FOR SHAME!

But I wanted to pause and take a moment to say happy birthday to the Americans with Disabilities Act! It was signed on July 26th 1990 by George H. W. Bush.

Amendments were signed on September 25, 2009 by George W. Bush.

I work with people with disabilities and we celebrated by having a party outside with live music and a lot of food!

I hope people will look up the ADA and embrace it!

Bravo to all the people in the Disability Rights Movement who made sure the laws were created. Now it's up to us to make sure they're followed through!
