A bill to update the 21st Century Communications and Video Accessibility Act of 2010.

This legislation aims to modernize the 21st Century Communications and Video Accessibility Act of 2010. If enacted, the bill would likely update federal standards to ensure that newer digital technologies, streaming services, and communication platforms are fully accessible to people with disabilities, including those who are blind, visually impaired, deaf, or hard of hearing. The proposal seeks to keep pace with the rapid evolution of technology since the original law was passed over a decade ago. For everyday citizens, this could mean improved access to closed captioning, audio descriptions, and user-friendly interfaces across a wider range of devices and online services. By refreshing these standards, the bill proposes to close gaps in current law that may exclude emerging video programming and advanced communication tools from essential accessibility requirements. This would help ensure that all Americans can participate equally in the digital economy and stay connected through modern media.
