Public service announcements in American sign language for persons who are deaf or hard of hearing on advertising structures.

A Local Law to amend the administrative code of the city of New York, in relation to public service announcements in American sign language for persons who are deaf or hard of hearing on advertising structures

This bill would require establishing a program to provide public service announcements in American Sign Language, with accompanying captions, for individuals who are deaf or hard of hearing. These announcements would be displayed on advertising structures such as LinkNYC kiosks and would include, among other things, information on the availability of text-to-911 and video relay services. The bill also requires a report assessing the effectiveness of the program.
