U.S. Department of Justice / ADA.gov

United States · ADA guidance and agency resources. ADA regulations, guidance, and resources from the U.S. Department of Justice. Distinguish guidance from the underlying regulation and verify effective dates.

Federal Register — Department of Justice

United States federal rulemaking · Official DOJ rulemaking documents, including proposed and final rules, corrections, and notices. Check whether a document is a proposal, interim rule, final rule, correction or notice.

W3C Web Accessibility Initiative news

Technical standards and accessibility guidance · Accessibility standards, technical guidance, and news from W3C’s Web Accessibility Initiative. Technical standards are distinct from legal requirements. A W3C publication is not itself a new legal requirement for every organization.

Section508.gov

U.S. federal information and communication technology accessibility · Guidance and resources on accessibility requirements for U.S. federal information and communication technology. Do not assume Section 508 covers every private website.

How to use these updates

Each update explains what changed, who it may affect, and where to find the original source. We distinguish proposals from final rules, guidance, and court decisions, and separate verified facts from our analysis.

Check the publication and review dates when using an update. Requirements can change, and a court decision may apply only in a particular jurisdiction or set of circumstances. We identify important limitations and note material corrections.

These updates are educational, not legal advice.
