The good news is that those cases caused laws to be passed preventing such injustices...Did you even bother to read the article? Yes, some laws were passed...and then...this is in the article, by the way:
The Supreme Court of the United States rules ..[that the law signed by Reagan was]..invalid. In its decision, the court stated that "Section 504 does not authorize the Secretary (of HHS) to give unsolicited advice either to parents, to hospitals, or to state officials who are faced with difficult treatment decisions concerning handicapped children."
A culture of death permeates the courts, as well as the halls of liberalism.

Well, we just have to keep voting in conservative politicians and making sure they push through their judicial nominations. For me it's one of the most important reasons for voting for conservatives.

No, the court ruled that "section 504 [of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973] does not authorize......"
That's not the law that Reagan signed, the Child Abuse Amendments of 1984.
