Comment:
American Sign Language (ase-ase) = 5 (Developing). Provincially recognized language, state laws cover a variety of issues: approving ASL for college credit, regulating interpreter services, deaf children’s education, etc. Recognized language (1990, Americans with Disabilities Act, ADA), requires governments, nonprofit organizations and private businesses to make their services accessible to deaf people, and mandates equal access to telecommunications services.
