NCIL urges action against ADA Notification Act
Florida Republican Congressman Mark Foley has introduced into the U.S. House of Representatives HR 914 -- the ADA Notification Act. The measure is nearly identical to one Foley introduced a year ago as HR 3690. This year's bill was introduced March 7.
"This proposed amendment is a direct attack on the civil rights of 56 million Americans with disabilities and must be stopped," said the National Council on Independent Living (NCIL) in a March 30 press release. "We say; if there are problems with lawyers and their ethical practices, don't fix the problems by eroding the civil rights of people with disabilities!"
