This won’t answer your direct question, but it was GWH Bush who we get to thank for ADA.
I think my tagline may apply here.
GET Bush wasn’t responibile for the lastest revision. Guess who??
On Friday,July 23,2010,Attorney General Eric Holder signed final regulations revising the Departments ADA regulations,including its ADA Standards for Accessible Design. The official text was published in the Federal Register on September 15,2010 (corrections to this text were published in the Federal Register on March 11,2011).
The revised regulations amend the Departments title II regulation,28 CFR Part 35,and the title III regulation,28 CFR Part 36. AppendixA to each regulation includes a section-by-section analysis of the rule and responses to public comments on the proposed rule. AppendixB to the title III regulation discusses major changes in the ADA Standards for Accessible Design and responds to public comments received on the proposed rules.
