Bill information
Summary
A bill to establish uniform accessibility standards for websites and applications of employers, employment agencies, labor organizations, joint labor-management committees, public entities, public accommodations, testing entities, and commercial providers, and for other purposes.
Plain-language summary
This bill would create uniform accessibility standards for websites and software applications used by employers, employment agencies, labor unions, government entities, businesses open to the public, and testing companies. Currently, different rules apply in different situations, making it difficult for people with disabilities to use online services consistently. The bill aims to establish one set of standards that all these organizations must follow. It is currently in the introduced stage, meaning it has been formally submitted to Congress but has not yet been assigned to a for review.
