Expressing support for July to be designated as "Disability Pride Month".
HRES 1282 is a non-binding House resolution expressing support for designating July as "Disability Pride Month." It recognizes that over 61 million U.S. adults live with disabilities and connects the designation to the anniversary of the Americans with Disabilities Act (signed July 26, 1990). The resolution urges Americans to observe the month with celebrations and actively work to prevent discrimination against people with disabilities. It does not create new laws or funding but formally endorses public recognition of disability pride.
