An Inclusive Litany

6/3/96

Former U.S. News & World Report White House reporter Matthew Cooper in the New Republic, June 3, 1996:
Dole has certainly shown understanding for the handicapped, sponsoring legislation like 1990's Americans with Disabilities Act.... But how far does Dole's empathy extend? He's helped the disabled but fought family and medical leave that would guarantee employees the right to care for a disabled loved one. He's been soft on the workplace and highway safety regulations and gun-control measures that would prevent many disabling accidents.
