I agree with the idea of broadening ADA to include websites and 
software. I encounter these issues all the time, and arguing 508 doesn't 
get me anywhere because that seems to be very narrow in scope. this is 
the next step toward equal access. the first step was getting into the 
building; now we've got to be able to do things once inside.

And without turning this into a Republicans-vs-Democrats discussion, the 
federal government needs to step in because the free market and the 
natural order hasn't done jack.
