flag A Florida woman with a disability sues after a law let pregnant women use disabled parking with a doctor’s note, arguing it violates her rights under the ADA.

flag A Florida woman with a severe disability has sued the state over a law allowing pregnant women in their third trimester to use disabled parking spots with a doctor’s note. flag The lawsuit, filed October 27, argues the law undermines federal protections under the Americans with Disabilities Act by reducing access to scarce accessible parking for people with permanent disabilities. flag Olivia Keller, who relies on a power wheelchair and van with a side ramp, says the policy threatens her independence and safety. flag The state began issuing red “expectant mother” placards in July, but disability advocates warn the program worsens parking shortages, especially in hot climates where overheating can be life-threatening. flag The case challenges whether temporary pregnancy-related needs should override guaranteed access for those with qualifying disabilities.
