What are civil rights laws? - ✔✔These are laws that emphasize equal rights for people

with disabilities, often making it illegal to discriminate against people with disabilities

under certain defined conditions, such as employment, access to buildings, government

services, or "places of public accommodation" such as restaurants, retail, entertainment,

etc. Sometimes these laws include technical standards. Other times they do not. The

Americans with Disabilities Act is an example of a civil rights law.


What are procurement laws? - ✔✔These laws require that accessibility be taken into

account when making a purchase or when contracting for services. For example, the

law could state that if there are three potential products and two of them meet

accessibility standards, only the products that meet the standards should be considered

for purchase. It would be against the law to buy the product that does not meet

accessibility standards. The most prominent procurement laws (like Section 508 of the

Rehabilitation Act in the United States, and EN 301 549 in the European Union) apply
