Our bill, which I'm really proud to have introduced with French Hill of North Carolina, would modernize it to guarantee that the full range of reasonable accommodations that smaller businesses have to make to make their spaces more accessible for people with disabilities are truly affordable for those businesses and therefore genuinely available for people with disabilities across our country.

McBride said her bipartisan bill would modernize the Disabled Access Credit to make the full range of reasonable accommodations affordable for small businesses and available to workers with disabilities.

McBride took concrete same-term action directly tied to the promise by introducing the Disabled Access Credit Modernization Act with Rep. French Hill. The bill would add reasonable accommodations as eligible expenses under the Disabled Access Credit, matching the substance of the commitment. However, the available bill-status evidence shows the measure was only referred to the House Ways and Means Committee and had not passed or become law, so the modernization outcome itself was not fully delivered.
