摘要

Constituents and visitors to the legislative branch with disabilities are guaranteed certain rights regarding access to elected representatives, committees, staff, and to the buildings where these officials are located. Under the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), these rights include equal access to evacuation plans and procedures. During the 109th Congress, planning for the prompt evacuation of individuals with mobility impairments was a priority. In all public buildings on Capitol Hill, employees and visitors with mobility impairments will now be directed to designated staging areas during an emergency. From these staging areas individuals with mobility impairments will be assisted to safety by trained employees. Further, although additional work needs to be done, steady progress is being made installing visual emergency alarms in public areas and providing hallway signage giving egress information to individuals with disabilities. These changes will assure the prompt alerting and evacuation of visitors with vision and hearing impairments.
