The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), which was amended by the ADA Amendments Act of 2008 (“Amendments Act” or “ADAAA”), is a federal law that prohibits discrimination against qualified individuals with disabilities. Individuals with disabilities include those who have impairments that substantially limit a major life activity, have a record (or history) of a substantially limiting impairment, or are regarded as having a disability.
