US Department of Justice to Propose New Rules on Web Accessibility

The US Department of Justice has announced that it will release a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (NPRM) on web accessibility for state and local government websites, in July 2013. This notice also indicates that DoJ has separated the state and local government rules (Title II of the Americans with Disabilities Act) from the public accommodation rules (Title III). A Title III NPRM may be released later, but no confirmation or date is included.
