?who all knew the answer to last week's trivia question:
Enacted in 1990 and just celebrating its 33rd anniversary, this is a federal civil rights law that prohibits discrimination against people with disabilities in everyday activities. It prohibits discrimination on the basis of disability just as other civil rights laws prohibit discrimination on the basis of race, color, sex, national origin, age, and religion. The law guarantees that people with disabilities have the same opportunities as everyone else to enjoy employment opportunities, purchase goods and services, and participate in state and local government programs. What is this federal civil rights law?
Answer: THE AMERICANS WITH DISABILITIES ACT (ADA)
