The two areas of concern today with ADA have been the bar set by the courts to limit who may be defined as disabled thereby forcing courts to evaluate to what degree of say epilepsy one might have to be considered disabled. In another words the state of ADA today is that only a disabled person with the most severe case of epilepsy might be covered and if one used medication to control your disability you might not be deemed disabled because you have managed to control or manage your disability to some degree (this is known as mitigating your disability therefore you’re not disabled). This bill does what many states have done as they pass their versions of the ADA. Disabled employment remains abysmally low with the ADA failing to protect people with disabilities. Give people with disabilities a chance to working citizens. Corporate fears are unfounded!... 27201@http://www.washingtonwatch.com Mon, 07 Jan 2008 23:02:10 EST
