Hello Steve,
The WAI (Web Access Initiative) of the W3C (World Wide Web Consortium)
has guidelines for companies that make software applications. They are
here: Authoring Tool Accessibility Guidelines (ATAG) Overview
http://www.w3.org/WAI/intro/atag.php
Additionally Browsers and other tools called User Agents, are covered
here: User Agent Accessibility Guidelines (UAAG) Overview
http://www.w3.org/WAI/intro/uaag.php
Which covers most of what you want to provide a company that makes
inaccessible software.
When you find a company that is not practicing Web Accessibility point
them to the above and tell them ADA laws cover their products.
Thanks,
Doyle Saylor
