The Honorable Thad Cochran
United States Senate

Dear Senator Cochran:

     This letter responds to your inquiry on behalf of the
Coalition of Citizens with Disabilities, which requested
clarification regarding a perceived conflict between the
requirements of Mississippi State law and those of the
Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990.

     As you requested, we have responded directly to your
constituent. Enclosed is a copy of our response.

     Please let me know if we can be of any further assistance.


                           Sincerely,




                         James P. Turner
                Acting Assistant Attorney General
                      Civil Rights Division

Enclosure
