'We've been fighting for a long time for any kind of recognition of the ADA throughout this whole thing,' said Ian Cordova Morales, president of Where Do We Go. 'That's the big piece people don't seem to be grasping, is that all of our people out there are experiencing some kind of disability, a physical disability - we've got people in wheelchairs, mental health disabilities.'

U.S. District Judge Kathleen Williams found Uthmeier violated her temporary restraining order last month to stop enforcing a new state law that makes it a crime for undocumented immigrants to enter Florida after illegally crossing into the United States.
