Increasing Access and Opportunity
Throughout 2020, the U.S. Department of Labor celebrated the 30th anniversary of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) – landmark legislation that reaffirms our nation's founding ideal of equality for all by increasing access and opportunity for people with disabilities across all aspects of community life, including employment.
At the Department of Labor, we are committed to delivering on the promise of the ADA, not only for today's workers with disabilities but for future generations as well.
