Within U.S. law, public accommodations are generally defined as entities, both public and private, that are used by the public. Examples include retail stores, rental establishments and service establishments, as well as educational institutions, recreational facilities and service centers. Private clubs and religious institutions were exempt. However, in 1984, the United States Supreme Court declared the previously all-male Junior Chamber International, a chamber of Commerce organization for persons between the ages of eighteen and thirty-six, to be a public accommodation, which compelled the admission of women into the ranks. Under United States federal law, public accommodations must be handicap-accessible and must not discriminate on the basis of race, color, religion, or national origin. The US states, in various non-uniform laws, also provide for non-discrimination in public accommodation. ==Federal law== Within the United States, federal legislation dealing with public accommodations include: * Title II of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 * Title III of the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「public accommodations」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
