PHILADELPHIA DAILY NEWS 3-25-89 PHOTO (by SAM PSORAS/ DAILY NEWS): A group of people with picket signs are gathered in front of a dark wall with a door. A woman (Cassie James) in a motorized wheelchair is sitting sideways in the center. She has a huge sign that reads in great big letters "ACCESS NOW." She has shoulder length hair and is wearing glasses, a dark coat, white pants and stylish boots. In front and to her left another woman in a wheelchair is sitting in front of the doorway leaning to one side talking to a woman in a midcalf length coat holding a cane. The woman in the wheelchair is holding a sign that reads "Disabled In Action." Above the door on the side of the wall you can read "841 Chestnut ..." Behind the woman in the center is another person standing with a sign that reads "Access is a civil right!" That person is looking at 2 other women standing, one of whom is holding an 81/2 by 11 sized bundle and is wearing a coat and boots and seems to be holding a bull horn. Beside her the last person is holding a sign that reads "No Appeal." Caption reads: ALL THEY ASK is ALL ABOARD A contingent of eight protesters, some in wheelchairs, picketed the United Mass Transit Administration office, 841 Chestnut St., yesterday in support of a recent 3rd U.S. Circuit Court or Appeals ruling that all buses bought with federal funds must be accessible to disabled riders and that all who can't use buses must be afforded other mass transit. The protesters said they represented a variety of advocacy groups staging protests nationwide on behalf of 5 million disabled and elderly Americans.

T I P S & TRENDS The President's Committee on Employment of People With Disabilities |Vol. 1 No.4 April 1989 [Headline] Administration Granted Rehearing of Transit Access Decision On April 10, 1989, the U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) requested a rehearing of a court decision that would make many transit systems more accessible to people who use wheelchairs. DOT requested all eleven judges of the U.S Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit to rehear the February 13 ADAPT (American Disabled for Accessible Public Transit ) vs. DOT decision (see March Tips & Trends) which ordered DOT to cease subsidizing buses purchased by transit systems unless they are equipped with wheelchair lifts. On April 19, 1989, the Third Circuit Court of Appeals vacated the February 13 decision and granted a rehearing to DOT. The unusual decision to grant a rehearing may indicate that the February 13 decision will be reversed. [Subheading] Decision Angers Protesters Also on April 10, disability advocates and members of ADAPT were protesting for accessible public transportation during a regional meeting of the American Public Transit Association (APTA) at the Nugget Casino in Reno, NV. Protesters were disappointed by the announcement that the Federal government had asked for a rehearing of the ADAPT vs. DOT decision. Three people with severe disabilities were injured, 49 protesters were arrested and many were jailed. Untrained ranch hands from the surrounding area assisted the under-staffed Reno police department with the arrests, and threatened to take seeing eye dogs from blind protesters if they did not disperse. Wheelchair users were dragged from their seats by the local police and deputies, who broke a leg of one severely disabled protester. Wade Blank, spokesperson for ADAPT, commented from Reno: "This means the protests must continue, all the way to the White House if need be.” Article is accompanied by a picture of a handwritten letter from a very young child. The letter reads: Dear Pres. Bush, Please stop the appeal so my sister can ride the bus with me. I love you. Kailee (5 yrs. old)
