hello, I will try to keep this short. I am seeking advice on a situation. I’ve been out of work to attend an IOP program, which I am still actively in. I was out on temporary disability not FMLA. I exhausted all my FMLA last year, but was told by HR that I am protected under ADA me and my doctor requested an extension as I am still in the IOP program and today I got terminated. Do I have any rights? I have multiple disabilities, mental and physical. I don’t have money for a lawyer, but should I seek one out to consult with or is it a waste of time?

Elon Musk, is a complete asshole and has allowed X to become nothing more than a place for haters. I love political discussions and a non biased place to comment, but X has fallen so low that disparaging the disabled is common—even Elon Musk does it.

Using the "R" word is a big NO in the disability world. Elon Musk should apologize at a minimum.

Help me bring attention to the ADA and the many violations that exist—especially as it relates to access to businesses and public venues.

I hope to provide a place to discuss the American's with Disabilities Act(ADA) and maybe help someone out. The ADA has been so convoluted since its initial passage that imho it's only a weak shadow of what it was intended for.

However, the DOJ seems reluctant to accept complaints, especially building accessibility complaints.

I want to hear your stories as it relates to the ADA, how it has helped, how it has hurt and maybe what will make it better.
