Good evening -


HB21-1110, which brings state law into agreement with the ADA
regarding state and local government, will be heard in the Senate
Judiciary Committee tomorrow at 1:30. You can follow the link below,
then look for the audio link and listen in.

As we've shared here before, an important part of this bill is the
requirement that state and local government entities meet web
accessibility standards within three years. That means web sites,
online forms, Bustang schedules and more have to become compliant with
the most current standards. There is also just over $600,000 in funds,
much of  which will go to train state web personnel in compliance,
review state web sites for access compliance, etc.
