Hugh Murray for Congress is committed to ensuring that our website and digital content are accessible to all users, including individuals with disabilities. We believe that every Virginian deserves equal access to information about our campaign and the ability to participate in the democratic process.

We strive to meet or exceed the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 Level AA standards. These guidelines help make web content more accessible to people with a wide range of disabilities, including:
- Visual impairments (blindness, low vision, color blindness)
- Hearing impairments
- Motor impairments
- Cognitive and learning disabilities

Our website includes the following accessibility features:

- Descriptive page titles and headings
- Skip-to-content links for keyboard users
- Logical tab order for keyboard navigation
Visual Design
- Sufficient color contrast between text and backgrounds
- Text that can be resized up to 200% without loss of functionality
- No content that flashes more than three times per second
- Images include alternative text descriptions
Content
- Plain language that is easy to understand
- Descriptive link text that makes sense out of context

Accessibility is an ongoing effort. We are continually working to:

- Train our team on accessibility best practices
- Review and update content for accessibility
- Address accessibility issues as they are identified

While we strive for full accessibility, some content may have limitations:
- Third-party content (such as embedded social media posts or videos) may not meet all accessibility standards
- Some older documents may not be fully accessible; we are working to remediate these
- Donation processing through ActBlue is subject to their accessibility practices

If you need campaign information in an alternative format, we are happy to help. We can provide:
- Large print materials
- Information via telephone
- Other reasonable accommodations upon request

When contacting us about an accessibility issue, please include:

We will make every effort to respond within 2 business days and work with you to provide the information you need in an accessible format.
---
Our website may link to third-party websites and services (such as ActBlue for donations, social media platforms, and news outlets). We are not responsible for the accessibility of these external sites, but we encourage our partners to prioritize accessibility.
---
We view accessibility as an ongoing responsibility, not a one-time project. As technology and standards evolve, we will continue to review and improve the accessibility of our website.
If you have suggestions for how we can improve accessibility, we welcome your input. Our campaign is about ensuring every Virginian has a voice — and that includes ensuring every Virginian can access information about our work.
