MPAS and many nationwide state agencies also require a valid driver license,
for office and client contact jobs.  What a sly motive and way to
discriminate against persons with disabilities.

Did you notice, Fred the requirement for a "valid Michigan drivers licenc
" here?

This is a discriminatory policy as it is not an essential function of the 
job under Title I of the ADA.

And it tends to glean out people with disabilities, including those who are 
blind solely on the basis of disability.
