An Arizona lawmaker wants to give businesses that make modifications in order to comply with the Americans with Disabilities Act a tax break.

If passed, Representative Vince Leach’s bill would incentivize a business owner to remove barriers that could prevent a person with a disability from having access.

Sarah Kader is an attorney with the Arizona Center for Disability Law. She calls the bill positive.

"Overall, I mean, we are hoping to see increased compliance with the ADA so that businesses are accessible, and we think that businesses should be able to have this tax benefit if they do remove barriers," Kader said.

Besides removing physical barriers, a business would also get a tax break if they provide qualified interpreters for people who are hearing impaired.
