CUTR is proud to support the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) 34th Anniversary. On July 26th we celebrate this important civil rights law that prohibits discrimination against individuals with disabilities in all areas of public life, including transportation! The purpose of the law is to make sure that people with disabilities have the same rights and opportunities as everyone else. #ADA34 #ThanksToTheADA
