(1) some 43,000,000 Americans have one or more physical or mental disabilities, and this number is increasing.

(4) Census data, national polls, and other studies have documented that people with disabilities, as a group, occupy an inferior status in our society, and are severely disadvantaged socially, vocationally, economically, and educationally.
