McCain vows to back changes to disabilities law
McCain said blame for the narrowed scope of the law shouldn't be placed on the Supreme Court, but rather on Congress. "In all due respect, I would put the blame right back on us for not writing legislation that is strong enough and specific enough so that the Supreme Court wouldn't even have to consider these cases," McCain said.

I mean the 1990 law he wants to update has been worked on hard to be overturned by Rethug judges he's been more than happy to place over and over on to the bench. The kind of judges he wants more of. But somehow the story is blame the congress.

2. Are you talking about the 1990 Americans With Disabilities Act
that prohibits discrimination in certain cases against individuals with disabilities?
