Summary
The bill would mandate that any television located in a state‑owned or leased building and open to the public or state employees continuously show closed‑captioning whenever it is available for the program being shown. It excludes older TVs that cannot support captioning. The goal is to make televised content more accessible for people with hearing impairments.
