| Comment : | There are many more. My point here is that the Committee and the Commission might consider attaching these features (and others that we can help you identify) to the topic of design features that will benefit people with cognitive disabilities. You have certainly considered the needs of voters with cognitive disabilities, and voters with cognitive disabilities and those who support and represent them should know that.
That said, we would still strongly encourage you to address the lingering, but extremely important, issue of pictorial, graphic and iconic representations. We feel that it should be called out in the guidelines in such a way that it is clear that NIST and the Commission are committed to developing legitimate standards and guidance for such features at the earliest feasible time.
We, of course look forward to continuing to dialogue and work with you on these issues that are so vital to the disability community, an integral part of equal rights for all. | |
