The House Resolution introduced by various representatives designates July 2025 as "Disability Pride Month" in Pennsylvania. This resolution commemorates the 35th anniversary of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), which was signed into law on July 26, 1990, by President George H.W. Bush. The ADA is a significant civil rights statute that prohibits discrimination based on disability and mandates reasonable accommodations in various sectors, including education and employment. Despite the progress made since the enactment of the ADA, individuals with disabilities still face discrimination and barriers to full participation in community life.

The resolution emphasizes the importance of recognizing "Disability Pride Month" as a means to honor the history, achievements, and ongoing struggles of the disability community. It highlights the need to reduce stigma and promote inclusivity while celebrating the contributions of individuals with disabilities. Events such as parades and advocacy activities are planned across Pennsylvania to mark this occasion, fostering awareness and support for the rights of people with disabilities.
