Colorado law meant to improve accessibility to government documents for hearing and vision impairments has had unintended consequences.
House Bill 21-1110 required all state and local agencies to implement accessibility plans for their IT systems by July 1 of this year or face potential discrimination lawsuits and fines of up to $3,500 .
The law allocated $ 300,000 to the Governor's Office of Information Technology to assist agencies with conversions.
"This is not as monumental of a task as they're making it out to be," Burke said.
Burke argued agencies would save money in the long run by complying with the state's accessibility requirements now rather than having to "retrofit" documents later.
Beecham said the law is about respect and equality, something the disability community has been working toward.
