Since 2007, the U.S. House of Representatives has made available BrowseAloud—an accessibility tool for persons with visual impairments and/or who have difficulty reading—on all House.gov web pages. In the years since, a number of free and low cost tools have become available that may fulfill the same functions as BrowseAloud. A partial list of these tools can be found online. In light of these new tools available to end-users, we are evaluating the utility of BrowseAloud on House.gov.

With that, we would like to hear your responses to the questions listed below. Please take a few minutes to answer these questions so that we can continue to provide the tools necessary to make House.gov accessible to everyone.

• Have you used BrowseAloud when visiting House.gov? If so, how often and how long have you been using BrowseAloud?
• Are there other tools available that the House should consider providing?
• If the House stopped providing BrowseAloud, are the existing free and low-cost tools referenced above sufficient for your needs?
