The document discusses the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) which was signed into law in 1990 by President George H. W. Bush.

It defines a person with a disability as someone who has a physical or mental impairment that substantially limits a major life activity, has a record of such impairment, or is regarded as having such an impairment.
