The EEOC just published their Notice of Proposed Rule Making (NPRM), implementing the ADA Amendments Act (ADAAA). The regs greatly expand the number of people covered and change the definition of who is "regarded as disabled."

Are the new changes likely to increase lawsuits under the ADA? Sears, Roebuck just agreed to pay $6.2 million in the largest ADA settlement in a single lawsuit in EEOC history.
