Governor Kelly Celebrates 35th Anniversary of the Americans with Disabilities Act
“The Americans with Disabilities Act, championed by Kansas’ own Senator Bob Dole, was a transformational piece of legislation that moved our country forward. All Kansans should have equal opportunity to thrive in our great state. As we celebrate the 35th anniversary of the ADA, we lift up the invaluable contributions and achievements of disabled Americans and recommit ourselves to building a Kansas that is accepting of all.”
