45 CFR 1151.5: Inconsistent State laws and effect of employment opportunities.
Where this section sits in the code
- Title 45—Public Welfare
- Subtitle B—Regulations Relating to Public Welfare
- CHAPTER XI—NATIONAL FOUNDATION ON THE ARTS AND THE HUMANITIES
- SUBCHAPTER B—NATIONAL ENDOWMENT FOR THE ARTS
- PART 1151—NONDISCRIMINATION ON THE BASIS OF HANDICAP
- Subpart A—General Provisions
(a) Recipients are not excused from complying with this part as a result of state or local laws which limit the eligibility of handicapped persons to receive services or to practice a profession or occupation.
(b) The presence of limited employment opportunities in a particular profession does not excuse a recipient from complying with the regulation. For example, a music school receiving Endowment financial assistance could not deny admission to a qualified blind applicant because a blind singer may experience more difficulty than a nonhandicapped singer in finding a job.
