Tech Accessibility Liability Contractor

Under current law, certain provisions are required in a public school contract (contract), and if the provisions are omitted from a contract, the law deems that the provisions are automatically included in the contract. The bill clarifies that the list includes that a contractor is required to comply with accessibility standards for an individual with a disability adopted by the office of information technology. The bill adds a provision to the list to require a contractor to indemnify, hold harmless, and assume liability on behalf of a public school contracting entity, the public school, and the public school's employees and agents, for all remedies for noncompliance with standards that ensure technology accessibility to persons with disabilities.
