Attractions Industry & the ADA

The U.S. Department of Justice published a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (NPRM) in June 2008, soliciting comments on a draft of the ADAAG rule. IAAPA responded with public testimony as well as written comments on the rule. We, along with many in Washington, anticipated the final rule would be published before President Bush left office. The rule was in the Office of Management and Budget's review process when Bush's term expired (all regulations go through this review before being published in the Federal Register and becoming "official").
