With the open captions, you&#8217;re able to read the dialogue, you can still hear, you know, whatever&#8217;s going on in the background,&#8221; Bouton said.<\/p>\n<p>Lin hopes the act will not only pass in the state of New York, but be mandated nationally.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;New York is such an influential state. So getting this passed statewide would mean probably that other states would follow through. So the next steps is for everyone to reach out to their local assemblyman and senators and write to them, call them, email them and tell them that please vote in favor of the Open Captioning Disability Act,&#8221; Lin said.<\/p>\n<p>You can find out more information about the act and sign a petition by <a
