Michael Krasny
at 10:00 AM

Twenty years ago, President George H.W. Bush signed the Americans with Disabilities Act. Advocates for disabled people say since then, many architectural and transportation barriers to access have been removed, but there is still more work to be done to achieve the goals set in 1990.

Guests:

Sid Wolinsky, co-founder and director of litigation for Disability Rights Advocates

Judy Heumann, special adviser for international disability rights with the U.S. Department of State

Martin Orlick, ADA defense lawyer and partner with the law firm Jeffer, Mangels, Butler and Marmaro in San Francisco
