This is an article with links to find information about legal issues mentioned in Lainey’s talks. Her talks are about the law and digital access. There are links to proposed new laws. There are also links to articles about legal advocacy to make the digital world work for disabled people. There are links about regulations and the risks of using an overlay. There are links about web access and many other things.

Digital accessibility is a civil right of people with disabilities. These links can help you better understand the legal side of accessibility.

There is never enough time when I deliver a Digital Accessibility Legal Update talk. Recently I’ve offered organizers a list of links to give participants more information about what I can only cover briefly in a 45-50 minute talk.

At the free 2026 Axe-con conference on February 24, links were dropped into the chat and posted on the legal update session page. You can also find the recording of that talk and the slides on that page. Thank you Axe-Con!

The next Update will be offered at the CSUN conference on March 11. It’s only in-person and organizers don’t share anything on the session page. No chat for links, no page for URLs. So I decided to share the links list here so everyone has access to it.

The links below are organized by topic instead of slide number because slides change with each presentation. Not all of these will be mentioned at CSUN, or any other talk I do this year. And I will try to keep this updated.

Please remember this is far from an exhaustive list of resources on any topic in the digital accessibility legal space. The resources below support topics discussed in my updates, and are typically recent (2025 and 2026) developments.

Thanks to everyone who helps me keep up (some but not all mentioned below). And thanks to everyone who knows the law is more than a checklist and that accessibility is a civil and human right of disabled people. I offer these legal updates at conferences and other public and private gatherings, always tailored to the particular audience. Visit my Speaking Page to reach out about offering a Digital Accessibility Legal Update Talk for your organization.
