We filed a lawsuit challenging the administration’s abrupt delay of critical website accessibility features designed to ensure blind people and people with other disabilities can access essential government and healthcare services online.

“For over fifty years, our laws—specifically Section 504 of the Rehabilitation act of 1973 and the Americans with Disabilities Act— have promised blind Americans and other Americans with disabilities equal access to all areas of life, including digital spaces and services. Yet today this promise remains unfulfilled, and now our government is compounding the outrage by asking us to wait even longer,” said President Riccobono. “We will not wait. We will fight to ensure that the promise of America’s laws, and indeed its founding documents, finally becomes reality for blind and disabled Americans.”

"As a blind college student, I had to think constantly about how to position myself for success—how to fund my education, expand my network, and build a future grounded in opportunity rather than limitation," Anil Lewis said.

"When I reflect on pivotal moments in my own journey, one experience stands out above all others: being awarded the Dr. Kenneth Jernigan Memorial Scholarship in the amount of $10,000 in 2002. That scholarship was far more than a financial award; it was an investment. It was an investment in my education, in my confidence, and in my belief that I could build the life I envisioned."
