Accessibility & Equal Participation
Campaign Accessibility, Language & Accommodation Policy
Vote Motta 2028 is working toward an accessible campaign experience for voters using phones, Windows computers, Macs, screen readers, keyboards, voice control, magnification, captions and other assistive technology.
Live beta notice: The website is operating while the expanded public launch is prepared for approximately August 10, 2026. Accessibility improvements are being tested continuously. This page describes the campaign’s target and process; it is not a claim that every page has already passed every manual test.
Technical target
The campaign’s voluntary target is WCAG 2.2 Level AA where reasonably achievable, with WCAG 2.1 Level AA as the minimum legal-risk benchmark used by many public-sector accessibility programs.
Automated tools can find some problems, but they cannot certify full accessibility. Manual keyboard, screen-reader, zoom, mobile and user testing are also required.
Website features
- Skip links and semantic page landmarks.
- Keyboard-visible focus and no forced page jumps while completing forms.
- Text-size, contrast, spacing, link-underlining and reduced-motion controls.
- Phone-friendly controls, safe-area spacing and 16-pixel form inputs.
- Caption, transcript and text-alternative expectations for campaign media.
- Email and copy fallbacks when an online form cannot complete.
Device-aware help
The website may identify a broad device category such as Windows, Mac, Android, iPhone or iPad inside the visitor’s browser to display relevant help. The accessibility module does not need to transmit or retain that device category.
Capability detection—keyboard, coarse touch, reduced motion, forced colors and browser language—is preferred over invasive device fingerprinting.
Speeches, Rallies & LivestreamsAccessible presidential-campaign communications
For major speeches, public forums and campaign events, the campaign’s goal is to provide the same core information through more than one method.
Video and audio
Human-reviewed captions for prerecorded speeches; live captions or CART for major livestreams when available; a written transcript; and spoken descriptions of important charts or visual-only information.
ASL and hearing access
ASL interpretation and assistive-listening support should be considered for major announced events and provided for reasonable accommodation requests when feasible. Interpreters should remain visible in the livestream frame.
Physical access
Accessible entrance and route, seating choices, wheelchair spaces with companion seating, accessible restrooms and parking information, service-animal access, and a clear accommodation contact before the event.
Alternative formats
Plain-language summary, large-print text, accessible HTML instead of image-only flyers, and accessible PDF or Word versions when documents are distributed.
Accommodation requests: Email info@votemotta2028.com. Providing advance notice helps the campaign arrange services, but the campaign should still consider late requests in good faith.
Language AccessTranslation into 100+ languages
The Accessibility & Help button provides a 100+ language selector and device-specific instructions for Chrome, Edge and Safari translation. Browser translation is preferred because it preserves the original VoteMotta2028.com address and secure form behavior.
Machine translation may contain mistakes, especially in legal, scientific, medical or campaign-finance wording. The English page remains the authoritative campaign version. Visitors may request clarification at info@votemotta2028.com.
Known Beta LimitationsWhat may still need improvement
- Third-party X, YouTube, PayPal and embedded media may have accessibility limits controlled by their publishers.
- Automatic captions and machine translations can contain errors and should be reviewed for major campaign communications.
- Older uploaded PDFs or images may require remediation or an accessible HTML alternative.
- AI-assisted campaign motion graphics must have a text alternative and must not be presented as documentary footage.
