President George H.W. Bush, on this day in history, July 26, 1990, signed into law the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), declaring comprehensive civil rights for those with disabilities.
"On that day, America became the first country to adopt a comprehensive civil rights declaration for people with disabilities," the same source cited. The ADA went through numerous drafts, revisions, negotiations and amendments since the first version was introduced in 1988. It would be a comprehensive civil rights law for persons with disabilities. Erica Lamberg is a contributing reporter for Fox News Digital.
The ADA is a civil rights law that prohibits any type of discrimination against individuals with disabilities in all areas of public life, including jobs, schools, transportation and all public and private places that are open to the general public, notes the ADA National Network.
