À propos de ce contenu audio
On April 20, 2026, the Department of Justice published an Interim Final Rule extending the ADA Title II digital accessibility compliance deadlines by one year. Large entities now have until April 26, 2027. Smaller entities and special districts have until April 26, 2028.
In this episode, AOG founder Becky Rehorn breaks down what changed, what did not, and what public agencies and AEC firms should do with this information. She also shares findings from her recent review of public involvement documents across 20 state DOT websites, all of which failed PDF accessibility validation.
The standard has not changed. WCAG 2.1 AA is still the requirement. The obligation under Title II has not changed. The deadline moved. The work did not.
