This resolution expresses strong support for designating July as Disability Pride Month , recognizing the substantial contributions of people with disabilities across American arts, science, healthcare, and other vital sectors. It acknowledges that millions of Americans live with disabilities and that the Americans with Disabilities Act was signed into law in July, yet people with disabilities continue to face discrimination and isolation. The resolution calls upon all people in the United States, interest groups, and affected individuals to observe Disability Pride Month with appropriate celebrations and activities. Crucially, it also urges them to take an active role in preventing the exclusion of and discrimination against people with disabilities, fostering a more inclusive and equitable society.
