This week marks the 34th anniversary of the historic
#CapitolCrawl where people with disabilities got out of their wheelchairs and crawled up the Capitol steps as a vivid, symbolic demonstration of the struggle to pass the Americans With Disabilities Act (ADA).
This week we acknowledge the impact of those who participated in this moment, like our very own CEO Doug Hovey, for paving the way to the passage of the ADA.
