Recognizing the need to improve physical access to many federally funded facilities for all people of the United States, particularly people with disabilities.

This measure recognizes that many federally funded buildings and places are still hard to access and calls out the need to improve physical access for everyone, especially people with disabilities . It highlights the problem and puts attention on making public spaces easier to use—things like entrances, ramps, restrooms, and pathways—so people can get where they need to go safely and with dignity .

It does not set new rules or funding on its own. Instead, it serves as a public statement to push for better access in facilities that receive federal money, which could encourage updates and improvements over time .

• Who is affected: People with disabilities and anyone who benefits from easier access (older adults, parents with strollers, people with temporary injuries) in places funded by the federal government .
• What changes: Raises awareness and urges improvements to physical access; it does not create new legal requirements by itself .
• Where it applies: Facilities that receive federal funding .
• When: Upon adoption as a formal statement; future actions would depend on follow-up by agencies and facility owners .
