Which provision is included in Title IV?

• A. Telephone companies must provide speech-impaired users with TDD devices equivalent to those provided to other customers
• B. All televisions must have CC ability
• C. Public accommodations must be accessible
• D. Discrimination in employment is prohibited

Answer: (A)

Title IV is about access to telecommunications for people with hearing or speech disabilities, ensuring they can use phone services through relay systems and have the necessary equipment available or accommodated. The statement about telephone companies providing speech-impaired users with TDD devices equivalent to those given to other customers fits this goal, because it emphasizes offering the appropriate equipment needed to make relay communication usable and on par with what others receive. The other options don’t align with Title IV: providing closed-captioning on televisions is a broadcast/consumer accessibility issue, not Title IV telecommunication access; requiring accessibility for public accommodations is a different title; and prohibiting employment discrimination falls under a separate part of the ADA.
