You Have 12-24 Months to Comply—Are You Ready?

On April 24, 2024, the U.S. Department of Justice issued a historic ruling: all state and local government digital services must meet WCAG 2.1 Level AA standards by April 2026 or 2027, depending on population size. This is no longer a recommendation—it’s enforceable federal law.

If your website, documents, mobile apps, or online services aren’t fully accessible to people with disabilities, your entity is now at legal risk.

Key Deadlines:

• April 26, 2026: Governments serving 50,000+ people

• April 26, 2027: Governments serving under 50,000 and all special purpose districts

What’s at Stake

• 💼 DOJ Investigations

• ⚖️ ADA Lawsuits & Consent Decrees

• 📉 Reputation Damage & Public Backlash

• 💸 Fines, Legal Costs & Unfunded Mandates

Noncompliance isn’t just a technical issue—it’s a public service and civil rights issue.

What Must Be Accessible?

If it’s public-facing and digital, it must meet WCAG 2.1 Level AA:

• Government websites & service portals

• PDF documents, forms, and Microsoft files

• Mobile apps & mobile-friendly sites

• Videos, livestreams, and multimedia

• Online payments, maps, calendars, and search tools

• Social media content (new posts only)

Even your third-party vendors must comply. All new procurement contracts must include accessibility requirements.
