The ADA allows persons with disabilities the opportunity to participate in the world around them.

The power of the ADA is that it ended up changing my life long before I ever imagined it would.

The ADA is the living testament to our Nation's commitment that we will always stand up for our neighbors' right to live fulfilling lives.

The ADA is essential in helping me overcome the obstacles I face as a Wounded Warrior and empowers me to assist other veterans. It allows me to be physically active, have my pilot's license, and serve in Congress.

At my core, I know that the American Dream is about the opportunity to work hard to make your future.

We must recognize and keep in the public consciousness the significant contributions and sacrifices Americans of every community have made that have helped forge the greatest country our world has ever known.
