  • 摘要:In this Essay, our ultimate goal is to demonstrate how advocates for the civil rights of people with disabilities can use Lane to construct a successful rights-based strategy. In doing so, we will show that Lane embarks upon a palpable and promising (but yet to be explicitly announced) rights-based standard to which important kinds of differential treatment of people with disabilities should be held. This strategy maps the way for legal thinking about disability discrimination to return from the wrong road down which Cleburne drove the national effort to achieve integration for people with disabilities. Our approach deflects disability discrimination and opens up opportunities for disabled people to exercise important rights that other citizens enjoy by turning attention to the public value of their doing so.
