Government services touch nearly every facet of life. From accessing transportation, housing, and healthcare to basic civic participation, prioritizing accessibility ensures we serve all people equitably and efficiently.

As ADA standards evolve, we’re committed to helping government initiatives become more inclusive and effective. Government agencies are being called not only to comply, but also to lead. Accessibility has become a cornerstone of how public services are delivered, and it represents an opportunity to energize initiatives that make systems more equitable, sustainable, and responsive to the people they serve.

Digital accessibility has evolved from a nice-to-have feature to a legal and ethical imperative. The Federal Trade Commission's recent $1 million enforcement action against accessiBe represents a watershed moment for the web accessibility industry, signaling that misleading claims about AI-powered accessibility solutions will face serious consequences.

As of April 24, 2024, the DOJ updated Title II of the ADA, setting clear guidelines for state and local government websites and apps. The goal? Ensure digital services are accessible to all and eliminate unnecessary barriers.

At Moser UX, we often explore how to go beyond surface-level accessibility and get asked an essential question by our clients: Why is accessibility important?
