On Wednesday, July 16th from 6:00-8:00pm in the Capitol Visitor Center Auditorium (CVC 200), there will be a screening of the PBS short documentary Change Not Charity: The Americans with Disabilities Act (see here). 

Following the film, Judy Woodruff will moderate a panel discussion featuring legislators who helped shape and pass the ADA, as well as those who participated in the making of the documentary.
