This week marks the 18th anniversary of the passage of the Americans with Disabilities Act.  Several hundred people rallied outside the US Capitol to push for changes that would strengthen the landmark legislation. The original bill has been weakened by two Supreme Court decisions that have determined that people with conditions including epilepsy, amputations, muscular dystrophy, and mental retardation are not protected by ADA in the workplace.  At the rally today, FSRN's Leigh Ann Caldwell spoke with John Lancaster, Executive Director of the National Council of Independent Living about an updated version of ADA that is stalled in the Senate, but overwhelmingly passed the House of Representatives earlier this year.
