Supreme Court to Decide on ADA 'Tester' Lawsuit Against Hotels

TL;DR Summary
The Supreme Court is set to hear a case that will determine whether disability rights advocates, known as "testers," have the right to sue hotels for alleged violations of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). The case involves Deborah Laufer, who has brought numerous lawsuits against hotels for non-compliance with ADA rules. Laufer, who uses a wheelchair and has a visual impairment, files complaints to force hotels to update their websites to be ADA-compliant. The outcome of the case could impact the effectiveness of the ADA in protecting individuals with disabilities from discrimination in public accommodations.
