1. Short title This Act may be cited as the Disability Access to Transportation Act . 2. Findings Congress finds the following: (1) According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 1 in 4 adults in the United States has a disability. (2) Section 2 of the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 ( 42 U.S.C. 12101 ) recognized that individuals with disabilities face discrimination when using transportation services and that Act sought to provide a clear and comprehensive national mandate for the elimination of discrimination against individuals with disabilities . (3) 32 years after the enactment of the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 ( 42 U.S.C. 12101 et seq. ), individuals with disabilities continue to face systemic discrimination and a lack of accessible transportation options. (4) Transportation is a core component of independent living, and without the ability to easily move from one location to another, especially to drop a child off at day care, arrive at work on time, or run basic errands, true community living is impossible. (5) Technology is changing the way the transportation industry provides services. (6) As technology continues to change the way people move from one place to another, the transportation sector, including Federal agencies, local transit systems, and private entities, must innovate and provide services in a way that empowers individuals with disabilities to travel independently in their communities. 3. One-stop paratransit pilot program (a) In general Not later than 6 months after the date of enactment of this Act, the Secretary shall establish a one-stop paratransit pilot program (referred to in this section as the pilot program ). (b) Purpose The purpose of the pilot program is to develop or expand paratransit programs carried out pursuant to the ADA to provide for 1 stop of at least 15 minutes outside of the vehicle during a paratransit trip to prevent long wait times between multiple trips that unduly limit an individual’s ability to complete essential tasks.
