Republicans are trying to repeal the Americans with Disabilities Act. [View all]

The vote in the House is scheduled for today for so-called "ADA Reform"--which essentially guts the enforcement provisions of the act so many people fought for for so long.

This is the latest update from DREDF--the Disability Rights Education and Defense Fund.

PLEASE contact your representative and ask them to vote NO on this attempt to roll back the civil rights of people with disabilities.

Together with the attacks on Medicaid, SSI and SSDI, this is the worst assault on the American disability community in decades.

Please help us stop this horrid part of the KGOP agenda.

Thank you.
