Accessibility Statement

Jessica for Columbia

Everyone deserves a seat at the table—and that includes access to this website.

We're committed to making this site usable, navigable, and readable for all people, regardless of ability, technology, or circumstance. That’s not just a courtesy—it’s a campaign promise.

Our Commitment

This website is designed to be accessible to people with disabilities, including:

• Screen reader users

• Keyboard-only users

• People with visual impairments, color blindness, or low vision

• People with hearing impairments

• People with cognitive or learning differences

• People using mobile or assistive technologies

We strive to meet or exceed WCAG 2.1 AA standards, the global benchmark for digital accessibility.

What We’ve Done

To create an inclusive experience, we’ve built this site to include:

• High contrast text and backgrounds

• Clear, consistent navigation

• Descriptive alt text for all meaningful images

• Keyboard-friendly controls

• Logical heading structure for screen readers

• Resizable text

• Simple, plain-language content wherever possible

Ongoing Work

Accessibility isn’t a one-time checkbox—it’s a continual process. We audit our site regularly and welcome feedback to make it better. If you encounter a barrier or see something we missed, tell us. We’ll fix it as quickly as possible.

We believe in a Columbia where everyone can participate—fully and equally. That includes this campaign, this movement, and this website.

This site is for the people. All the people.
