WE CAN’T AFFORD TO *NOT* MAKE OUR CITIES

MORE ACCESSIBLE FOR PEOPLE WITH DISABILITIES


Buses that have ramps, lifts, or boarding platforms for ease of access are not just for those who use assistive mobility devices, but they also make boarding easier for small children, senior citizens, and urban dwellers schlepping home groceries and goods because they live car free.

Sadly, the landmark civil rights legislation that makes these things possible—and is a game changer for more than 80 million people with disabilities in the U.S. and their families—could be watered down or all but dismantled.
