Sneak peek: Biden to tout ADA's bipartisan roots

Biden, who'll be joined at the event by lawmakers of both parties, will note that more than three decades later, leaders from across the aisle are standing together again because the ADA is a product of passion and compassion — not partisanship.

• Biden will say that for the more than 60 million Americans living with a disability, the ADA is a source of opportunity, independent living and respect, the White House said in a preview.
• He'll also note that the law prevented disabled Americans from being denied service at restaurants or grocery stores, allowed people in wheelchairs to ride buses or trains to work or school, and stopped employers from refusing to hire workers because of disabilities.
