On July 25th, the Transformation to Competitive Integrated Employment Act was introduced in the United States Congress by Senators Van Hollen (D-MD) and Daines (R-MT) and Representatives Scott (D-VA) and Sessions (R-TX). If passed, the bill would phase out the use of 14(c) certificates that allow employers to pay people with disabilities less than the minimum wage. While several states have already taken action to phase out the use of 14(c) certificates, federal action would mean that every person with a disability in the U.S. would have the opportunity for competitive integrated employment.
