The Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 ([ADA], Pub. L. No. 101–336) is considered to be the most significant federal law ensuring the civil rights of all individuals with disabilities. It was amended by the Americans with Disabilities Act Amendments of 2008 (Pub. L. No. 110–325). The ADA guarantees equal opportunity in employment, public accommodation, transportation, state and local government services, and telecommunications to individuals with disabilities. Title II, Subtitle A, is the portion of the law most pertinent to public schools (see Chapter 5).
