HCONRES 101 United States House · 118th Congress

Recognizing the need to improve physical access to many federally funded facilities for all people of the United States, particularly people with disabilities.

HCONRES 101 is a symbolic resolution introduced in the U.S. House of Representatives on March 22, 2024, by multiple cosponsors. It recognizes that people with disabilities face daily barriers accessing federally funded facilities and reaffirms support for the existing Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) and Architectural Barriers Act of 1968. The resolution pledges to prioritize "universal and inclusive design" in future federal infrastructure projects but does not create new legal requirements or alter current accessibility standards. As a concurrent resolution, it has no binding effect and serves only to express congressional support for accessibility goals.
