The measure known as Rosa’s Law was approved unanimously by Congress before receiving the go-ahead from the president with little fanfare this week. Under the law, "mental retardation" and "mentally retarded" will be stripped from federal health, education and labor policy. "Intellectual disability" and "individual with an intellectual disability" will be inserted in their place. The rights of individuals with disabilities will remain the same) | |
