Analyze Clean Air Act statements

• Statement 4: The 1990 Clean Air Act amendments focused directly on reducing environmental pollution, specifically targeting air quality. Thus, this statement is correct.

Analyze Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) statements

• Statement 2: The ADA prohibits discrimination against individuals with disabilities in all areas of public life, including jobs, schools, transportation, and public/private places open to the general public. Thus, this statement is correct.
• Statement 3: The ADA applies to public accommodations, commercial facilities, and employment, but does not require private residential homes to install accessibility features. Thus, this statement is incorrect.
