The Senate and the house have approved the ADA Amendments Act which expands protection against workplace discrimination for people with disabilities and overturns Supreme Court rulings that limited the scope of the regulation.
Both the House and the Senate bills define a disability as a physical or mentail impairment that "substantially limits" one or more life activities. They increase the number of activities covered and add a category of bodily functions and allow workers to sue if they believe they are mistreated under the revised ADA regulation.
