WASHINGTON–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Mark Riccobono, executive director of the National Federation of the
Blind Jernigan Institute, testified today before a hearing of the Senate
Health, Education, Labor and Pensions (HELP) Committee. The hearing,
“The Promise of Accessible Technology: Challenges and Opportunities,”
was convened to explore the barriers and opportunities that technology
presents to Americans with disabilities. Mr. Riccobono testified
regarding the importance of ensuring that technology used in K-12 and
postsecondary educational institutions is accessible to the blind and to
other students with disabilities.

“The Promise of Accessible Technology: Challenges and Opportunities”

Mr. Riccobono testified in part: “Harnessing the extraordinary promise
of technology is within our reach, but it will take leadership,
commitment, and ongoing oversight. The alternative is a future where we
spend our time, money, and innovative capacity retrofitting bridges to
patch the digital divide rather than enjoying the economic and social
advantages gained by the increased usability of technology and the
increased leveraging of human capacity that results from technology that
is designed and built to be accessible to all. … If built universally
and implemented effectively, technology will make the passion and skill
of our greatest teachers even more powerful as we nurture the next
generation of leaders for our nation. If we fail to include
accessibility in that technology, we will set this generation of
students with disabilities back decades. The cost to those individuals
and to our country is too great and the opportunity is too promising to
stand by and let that happen.”

Marc Maurer, President of the National Federation of the Blind, said:
“We would like to thank Senator Tom Harkin and the members of the HELP
