Washington Seminar Priorities

The National Federation of the Blind is a community of members and friends
who believe in the hopes and dreams of the nation's blind. Every day we work
together to help blind people live the lives we want. The following is the
agenda of the Washington Seminar, fact sheet, and digital packet.

Legislative Agenda & Fact Sheets

Access Technology Affordability Act

The cost of critically needed access technology is out of reach for most
blind Americans. The
<https://www.nfb.org/programs-services/advocacy/washington-seminar/washington
-seminar-agenda/fact-sheet-access> Access Technology Affordability Act will
improve affordability of critically needed access technology necessary for
employment and independent living.

Medical Device Nonvisual Accessibility Act

Advanced digital interfaces create barriers that prevent blind individuals
from independently and safely operating home-use medical devices that are
essential to their daily healthcare needs. The
<https://www.nfb.org/programs-services/advocacy/washington-seminar/washington
-seminar-agenda/fact-sheet-medical-device> Medical Device Nonvisual
Accessibility Act will end unequal access to home-use medical devices for
blind Americans.

Accessible Websites Act

Websites are required by law to be accessible, but without implementing
regulations most businesses and retailers have little understanding of what
accessible means. The
<https://www.nfb.org/programs-services/advocacy/washington-seminar/washington
-seminar-agenda/fact-sheet-accessible-websites-act> Accessible Websites Act
will end website and mobile application inaccessibility for blind Americans.

Accessible Voting Act

The constitutionally protected right to vote that is available to all
Americans is inaccessible to blind Americans. The
<https://www.nfb.org/programs-services/advocacy/washington-seminar/washington
-seminar-agenda/fact-sheet-accessible> Accessible Voting Act will ensure that
all methods of voting, including registration, are accessible to blind and
low-vision citizens.

THESE PRIORITIES WILL REMOVE OBSTACLES TO ECONOMIC OPPORTUNITY, MEDICAL
DEVICES, WEBSITES, AND CIVIL RIGHTS. WE URGE CONGRESS TO SUPPORT OUR
LEGISLATIVE INITIATIVES.
