DOJ delays compliance deadline for Title II updates
Abstract
The U.S. Department of Justice has issued an interim final rule delaying the compliance deadlines for new web and mobile accessibility requirements under Title II of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). The rule extends by one year the deadlines originally established in a 2024 regulation requiring state and local governments to make their websites and mobile applications accessible to individuals with disabilities. Under the revised schedule, public entities serving populations of 50,000 or more must comply by April 26, 2027, rather than April 24, 2026. Smaller public entities and special district governments now have until April 26, 2028.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
