While the employment provisions of the ADA apply to employers of fifteen employees or more, its public accommodations provisions apply to all sizes of business, regardless of number of employees. State and local governments are covered regardless of size. Effective enforcement of this landmark civil rights legislation is a high priority of the Federal Government.
