We strongly support the Air Carrier Access Amendments Act (ACAAA), H.R. 1696, which was introduced by Rep. Jim Langevin (D-RI).
For me, accessible air travel is a must. In fact, I can confidently say that without it, I would not be able to do my job effectively.
Overall, we must work to break down all barriers in our society so that people with disabilities can live more full and independent lives.
