 n.\n\nConsidered the "Emancipation Proclamation for people with disabiliti
 es\," the ADA changed the landscape of America by prohibiting discriminati
 on against people with disabilities in all aspects of public life\, includ
 ing employment\, schools\, transportation\, local government programs\, an
 d places of public accommodation. To preserve the intent of the ADA after 
 court rulings weakened its standards\, Harkin and former Senator Orrin Hat

 om discrimination for all Americans with disabilities. It was signed into 
 law in 2008. \n\nIn the podcast\, Harkin will discuss how the ADA legisla
 tion came about\, its impact over the last 29 years\, and the future of ci
