February 3, 2012 – We understand that your members are upset about the Department of Justice ruling on swimming lifts. We are fed-up with it, but we keep fighting to make a difference, if not regulations and legislation will be worse for all of us. Hopefully, you are telling the members the things that we have done on ADA. Without our involvement the new Americans with Disabilities Act requirements would have not taken our industries concerns into account and the results would have been untenable for most properties. AH&LA worked with the Department of Justice to address the needs of guests and the realistic ability of properties to make changes to the Guidelines for over 10 years.
