The Justice Department today announced that it has secured a settlement agreement<https://lnks.gd/l/eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiJ9.eyJidWxsZXRpbl9saW5rX2lkIjoxMDAsInVyaSI6ImJwMjpjbGljayIsImJ1bGxldGluX2lkIjoiMjAyMjAyMDIuNTI3NzIwNDEiLCJ1cmwiOiJodHRwczovL3d3dy5hZGEuZ292L21laWplcl9zYS5wZGYifQ.2dyJM2Pg-XFG-uWN3HWRn_Z4X56TTZkqj0zOdg0qT2Y/s/6556102/br/126014545614-l> with Meijer, Inc., that will help people with disabilities get information about COVID-19 vaccinations and book their vaccination appointments online. The agreement, which requires Meijer to conform its COVID-19 vaccine content to the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines Version 2.1, will help ensure that individuals with disabilities who use screen readers and those who have difficulty using a mouse can privately and independently book their potentially life-saving vaccination appointments online. Today’s resolution is the department’s fourth agreement on the critical issue of COVID-19 vaccination website accessibility, following a November 2021 settlement with Rite Aid Corporation<https://lnks.gd/l/eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiJ9.eyJidWxsZXRpbl9saW5rX2lkIjoxMDEsInVyaSI6ImJwMjpjbGljayIsImJ1bGxldGluX2lkIjoiMjAyMjAyMDIuNTI3NzIwNDEiLCJ1cmwiOiJodHRwczovL3d3dy5hZGEuZ292L3JpdGVfYWlkX3NhLnBkZiJ9.jAF1rFq0PuD9F1TBDwNZOyi9NP_wD-6bz6qP4lXR3BA/s/6556102/br/126014545614-l>; a December 2021 settlement with Hy-Vee, Inc.<https://lnks.gd/l/eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiJ9.eyJidWxsZXRpbl9saW5rX2lkIjoxMDIsInVyaSI6ImJwMjpjbGljayIsImJ1bGxldGluX2lkIjoiMjAyMjAyMDIuNTI3NzIwNDEiLCJ1cmwiOiJodHRwczovL3d3dy5hZGEuZ292L2h5LXZlZV9zYS5wZGYifQ.uowwXS3pFUw_v3hrZbSYpCzq0_Td1lYB4fSUhYAx_T0/s/6556102/br/126014545614-l>; and a January 2022 settlement with The Kroger Co.<https://lnks.gd/l/eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiJ9.eyJidWxsZXRpbl9saW5rX2lkIjoxMDMsInVyaSI6ImJwMjpjbGljayIsImJ1bGxldGluX2lkIjoiMjAyMjAyMDIuNTI3NzIwNDEiLCJ1cmwiOiJodHRwczovL3d3dy5hZGEuZ292L2tyb2dlcl9jb19zYS5wZGYifQ.0wy1KZnE4EBZg1YKJ9v50HYeEGr86PCZT40u4I83g4s/s/6556102/br/126014545614-l> To find out more about this agreement or the ADA, visit ada.gov<https://lnks.gd/l/eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiJ9.eyJidWxsZXRpbl9saW5rX2lkIjoxMDQsInVyaSI6ImJwMjpjbGljayIsImJ1bGxldGluX2lkIjoiMjAyMjAyMDIuNTI3NzIwNDEiLCJ1cmwiOiJodHRwczovL3d3dy5hZGEuZ292LyJ9.O6g4juoGxkPxjxG1x3uxrKM8MDhmBf7zovOBQoEZjAA/s/6556102/br/126014545614-l> or call the Justice Department's toll-free ADA information line at 1-800-514-0301 or 1-800-514-0383 (TDD).
