Doesn't Trump's assault on accessibility violate the ADA? (www.npr.org)

So I was reading this article about Trump's crackdown on DEIA initiatives, and I must admit, I didn't know what the A stands for in that acronym. So I looked it up and and it's accessibility.

Which raises the question: doesn't killing accessibility programs violate the Americans with Disabilities Act? To my knowledge, the ADA is still very much in force.

Another possible angle to mete some justice to this depressing heartless man...

For some, the law is already unjust (see push to deport legal immigrants, treatment of LGBT+/disabled people by federal law, etc).

Anyway, if Luigi hats are out of stock, you could find a red one instead and say you're his brother or something.
