Solutions for New Mexico
New Mexico Accessibility Act + ADA Title II Compliance
New Mexico's legislature introduced the Accessibility Act (HB 120) targeting WCAG 2.1 AA for state agency websites, and the federal ADA Title II rule applies to all public entities regardless. For New Mexico agencies, that means public-facing PDFs need to be accessible — and CASO Comply automates that remediation at scale.
What New Mexico Is Requiring
New Mexico has pushed for state-level accessibility legislation, and the federal ADA Title II rule creates binding deadlines for all public entities in the state.
New Mexico Accessibility Act (HB 120)
Introduced in the 2025 legislative session, HB 120 would require state agency websites and mobile applications to comply with WCAG 2.1 Level AA by April 1, 2026, with mandatory accessibility statements and an Office of Accessibility to oversee compliance.
HB 120 — Private Right of Action
The Accessibility Act includes a private right of action allowing individuals with disabilities to file civil suits against non-compliant state agencies, seeking injunctive relief to compel accessibility compliance.
HB 120 — Office of Accessibility
The bill creates a new Office of Accessibility responsible for training, technical assistance, and biennial compliance reporting to the governor — establishing ongoing state-level oversight of digital accessibility.
Federal ADA Title II Requirements
Regardless of state legislation, all New Mexico state and local government entities are subject to the DOJ's ADA Title II web accessibility rule requiring WCAG 2.1 AA compliance for public-facing web content, including PDFs.
The Federal Clock New Mexico Is On
The DOJ's ADA Title II web rule defines “web content” to include documents posted on public websites — which puts PDFs squarely in scope for New Mexico agencies and municipalities.
