Bill overview
The ADA Compliance for Customer Entry to Stores and Sites Act of 2026, or ACCESS Act, aims to improve compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) by promoting education on accessible design, clarifying demand letter procedures, and establishing a notice and cure period before lawsuits can be filed. Specifically, it requires property owners and website developers to educate themselves on accessibility standards and provides a process for individuals to request barrier removal with a 60-day timeframe for response and action. The bill also encourages mediation to resolve ADA-related architectural barrier claims and directs a study on alternative accessibility methods like WCAG 2.0 standards.
