April 24th is 22 days away.
That's the DOJ's ADA Title II compliance deadline for public universities and government agencies.
If your institution is scrambling, you're not alone. The real problem usually isn't the website. It's that nobody owns the work.
@mallis and @mikemccaffrey wrote a guide on building the internal team that makes accessibility stick.
ADA pro se lawsuits are up 40% -- AI is making it easy for anyone to file a federal complaint. And the FTC just confirmed: overlays aren't a fix.
Genuine accessibility work costs less than a lawsuit. Every time.

As we wrap up the 2025 digital accessibility lawsuit season, a significant change is apparent. After a 10% decline from 2023 to 2024 (dropping from 4,605 to 4,146 lawsuits), this year is projecting nearly 5,000 cases — a 20% surge according to UsableNet’s Mid Year Report . What changed?

So I wore my own fluffy white ensemble to the party!

Failure to provide ADA-compliant rooms, auxiliary aids, or equal access may lead to liability under California law.
