Justice Department removes disability guidance for businesses

Posted on April 1, 2025


The Justice Department announced the removal of 11 guidelines for businesses looking to comply with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA).  Over the years, ADA rules and guidance have been added to specify protections for people with disabilities.

The Department said removing the guidance will help businesses comply with the ADA and eliminate unnecessary review.  Advocacy groups said the rollback of some guidelines could reduce protections for people under federal law and are “very concerned about these changes.”
