Accessibility

Last updated: September 26, 2026

Our commitment

This site, and the legislative trackers we build, are meant to be usable by everyone, regardless of how they access the web. We aim to follow standard web accessibility practices so our sites work well with the assistive technologies people already use, whether that's a screen reader, an alternative input device, or built-in accessibility features on a phone or computer.

What that looks like in practice

We build with real, standard HTML elements rather than custom controls that behave unpredictably. Buttons are actual buttons, links are actual links, and pages don't rely on hover-only interactions or unusual scroll behavior. Buttons are also sized and spaced with room for error, not packed tightly together, since precise clicking or tapping can be difficult for people with tremor or other motor conditions.

This is what allows our sites to work with screen readers (like JAWS, NVDA, or VoiceOver), switch access, eye-tracking and gaze control, cursor-smoothing tools, voice control, and other alternative input methods, since these tools generally work by controlling standard clicks, taps, and keyboard input rather than requiring anything site-specific.

An ongoing effort

Accessibility isn't a one-time checklist, and we don't claim our sites are perfect. As Capitol Watch USA grows and builds new products, we aim to keep accessibility in mind from the start rather than treating it as an afterthought.

Let us know if something doesn't work

If you use assistive technology and run into something on this site, or on one of our trackers, that doesn't work the way it should, we want to know. Reach out at info@capitolwatchusa.com and describe what happened, including the tool or device you were using. We'll do our best to fix it.
