The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) was signed into law in 1990. This law extends civil

rights protection to persons with disabilities in private sector employment, all public services, and in

public accommodations, transportation and telecommunications. A person with a disability is defined as

someone with a mental or physical

impairment

that substantially limits him or her in a major life

activity, such as walking, talking, working, or self-care. A person with a disability may also be someone

with a past record of such impairment, for example, someone who no longer has heart disease but is

discriminated against because of that history.

The ADA reckons that employers with fifteen or more employees may not refuse to hire or

promote a person because of a disability if

he is qualified to perform the job. Also, the employer must

make reasonable accommodations that will allow a person with a disability to perform essential functions

of the job.

All new vehicles purchased by public transit authorities must be accessible to people with

disabilities. All rail stations must be made accessible, and at least one car per train in existing rail systems

must be made accessible.

It is illegal for public accommodations to exclude or refuse persons with disabilities. Public

accommodations are businesses and services such as restaurants, hotels, grocery stores and parks. All new

buildings must be made accessible, and existing facilities must remove barriers if the removal can be

accomplished without much difficulty or expense.

The ADA also stipulates that companies offering telephone service to the general public must offer relay

services to individuals who use telecommunications devices for the deaf, twenty-four hours a day, seven

days a week.
