Key Points

Congress is considering a plan to add adult changing rooms to two major buildings in Washington, D.C. The Architect of the Capitol would be required to put these rooms in at least one restroom in both the Library of Congress and the Capitol Visitor Center.
These rooms are designed for adults with disabilities who need more help than a standard bathroom provides. They will include special features like a large changing bench, safety rails, and a hoist to help move people safely.
The goal is to make these public buildings more welcoming for everyone. Standard baby changing tables are too small for many adults, and these new rooms will provide enough space for one or two caregivers to assist a person in private.
