Things didnβt just magically become better overnight, especially in 1990, when it passed. I think it took a lot of years after it passed for all of us to see the changes, right? Like curb cuts, elevators, just some of the very basic things that we take for granted. All of the things have to still be fought for even today. But I will say that what the A.D.A. did was [give] us a law that we could call our own. It was the law that was for us, and it was the law thatβs enshrined in our legal protections. There were other laws before that, but the A.D.A. really was the one we could use as a tool.
