ADA on the Web: Knowledge is Power
As Associate Director Mark Pelavin’s recent blog noted, one of the RAC’s own was published this week – twice. Rabbi Lynne Landsberg, Senior Advisor on Disability Issues, authored an op-ed placed in Monday’s Chicago Tribune about the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) Restoration Act. On Wednesday, a similar op-ed of Lynne’s was published in the Baltimore Sun.
Lynne isn’t alone in her passionate support of this bill. In fact, the same day her first op-ed appeared, two others on the topic were published in papers across the country. Joyce Bender’s The ADA Restoration Act and Restoring Freedom for Many (The Cutting Edge) and Clay Boatwright’s Protect Aid to Those Living with Disabilities (The Dallas News) both eloquently articulate the need to restore the ADA.
One more thing – the Epilepsy Foundation, a leading disability rights organization at the forefront of the ADARA fight, has launched its new Web site, Restore the ADA. The site directs visitors to news articles, action alerts and general information about the bill, presenting information about the bill in a concise, readable way.
The more publicity ADA Restoration gets, the better. As the old cliché says, knowledge is power – and the more people we can educate, the more minds we can change. Click here today to send a letter to your member of Congress urging passage of the ADA Restoration Act of 2007.
