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

SCONRES 31 is a non-binding Senate resolution recognizing the need to improve physical access to federally funded facilities for people with disabilities. It does not create new legal requirements but formally acknowledges existing barriers and reaffirms support for the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) and the Architectural Barriers Act of 1968. The resolution urges federal infrastructure projects to adopt universal design principles to ensure equal access. It directly addresses people with disabilities, who face daily access challenges in public facilities, and cites statistics on disability prevalence and employment gaps. The resolution has no enforceable provisions but serves as a statement of congressional intent.
