The House Resolution introduced by a group of 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 law 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 challenges such as 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 for continued advocacy and awareness to reduce stigma and promote inclusivity. Celebrations and events are planned across Pennsylvania, including in major cities like Harrisburg, Philadelphia, Pittsburgh, and Williamsport, to foster community engagement and recognition of the contributions of individuals with disabilities. The resolution aims to encourage all Pennsylvanians to acknowledge both the advancements made under the ADA and the ongoing efforts required to achieve equality and inclusion for people with disabilities.
