The American Jewish Committee

OFFICE OF THE WASHINGTON REPRESENTATIVE, 2027 Massachusetts Avenue, NW, Washington, D.C. 20036 (202) 265-2000

June 26, 1990

Dear Senator:

	The American Jewish Committee (AJC) strongy urges you to support the Conference Report on S. 933, the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), when it comes for a vote on the Senate floor. We also urge you to oppose any procedural motion which would delay civil rights protection to over 43 million Americans with disabilities. The disabled community has waited too long for the same guaranteed rights other minorities enjoy. We cannot allow them to wait any longer. It is at this crucial point that the ADA needs your full support. 

	Every American deserves equal treatment under the law and must not be denied access to employment, transportation, telecommunications or public accommodations based simply on a disability. Demonstrate your  commitment to ensuring the rights of the disabled by supporting the ADA.

	Thank you for your attention to our views.

Sincerely, 

[Sholom D. Comay signature]
