House would formally back July as Disability Pride Month
A new bill would have the House of Representatives officially support July as "Disability Pride Month." This means the House would encourage Americans to celebrate the month and work to prevent discrimination against people with disabilities. The designation would acknowledge millions of adults and children with disabilities.
Today, July is celebrated as "Disability Pride Month" by many Americans, but without formal recognition from the House of Representatives. If this bill passes, the House would officially support the designation of Disability Pride Month. It would also call on the public to observe the month with celebrations and actively work against discrimination and exclusion of people with disabilities.
