Abstract
Into its fourth decade, the Americans with Disabilities Act has taken its place alongside the Civil Rights Act of 1964 as a successful step in addressing discriminatory conduct in the United States. The law prohibits discrimination in hiring and on the job, in governmental and public activities, transportation, at public accommodations like hotels, restaurants, and theaters, and ensures access to telecommunications systems for speech and hearing impaired individuals.
