As movie theaters become more and more technologically advanced, more states are introducing bills to require movie theater access for deaf and hard of hearing people. A state Senator in Kentucky just introduced a bill to require all movie theaters in Kentucky with 5 or more screens to provide access on at least one screen. It is only a matter of time before one of these state bills passes, because the state officials are beginning to see the ludicrousness of not providing access in the face of expensive movie theater technology being installed everywhere. Will Kentucky be the first?
