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.

Anybody that'll stand up to The Cline is all right.

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

I stand up to people.

Nobody wants to be on food stamps, but when my family lost everything, we were grateful for it. I was grateful the program was there so I could concentrate on my schoolwork and not on my empty belly. We were grateful that we had the support we needed to roll up our sleeves and rebuild our lives.

We must be an inclusive nation that respects and supports all of its citizens: a nation that doesn't give up on anyone who hasn't given up on themselves.
