The answer is simple. Building owners do not want to spend the money to comply with the ADA. This was also the case with the Rehabilitiation Act of 1973. So, when congress pass the ADA in 1990 they put it in under the umbrella of the Civil Rights Laws and made the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) the enforcer.
The DOJ does not have ADA policemen. Civil Rights Law is always policed by those citizens that have been discriminated against. Congress understood that need and gave the tools to the handicapped citizens to get the job done. ACCESS has come to the challenge and joined the team with its professional expertise, with its "Wheelchair Watchdog" program. A program that mobilizes the wheelchair communtiy and all other handicapped citizens to get the job done, so all buildings will be ADA compliant.
Come, become a "Wheelchair Watchdog".
