On Thursday, December 11, the U.S. State Department adopted a new official font to be used for all official department documents. The Biden administration adopted the Calibri font. Many advocate that this font is most accessible for persons with low vision. Secretary Marco Rubio instructed that the department return to the use of Time New Roman. Many advocates in the disability community have spoken out. ACB’s low vision affiliate, CCLVI, along with other affiliates, plan to put out a public statement in opposition to this change.
