    Links lack accessible text

    WCAG 2.4.4 (A) · 1 inspected page · 2 instances
    Why this matters

    Links expose no accessible name, so screen-reader users cannot determine their destination.

    Recommended action

    This link exposes no accessible text. Add visible text that identifies its destination, or remove the link if it serves no purpose. For an icon-only link, provide an aria-label describing where it goes. The link points to https://act.fightcancer.org/a/2026-lights-hope?=&ms=fundraising_LOH1_web_ho….

    Embedded frames lack descriptive titles

    WCAG 4.1.2 (A) · 1 inspected page · 1 instance
    Why this matters

    An <iframe> has no title, so its purpose is not announced to assistive technology.

    Recommended action

    Add a concise title attribute that describes the frame's actual purpose — for example "Store locator" for a location search or "Promotional campaign" for a marketing embed. The affected frame loads /splashify-splash, which can help identify its purpose. Avoid generic values such as "Embedded content", "iframe", or "frame".

Hidden elements can still receive keyboard focus

WCAG 2.4.3 (A)50 instances5 inspected pages

An element is not visible but remains in the tab order, so a sighted keyboard user loses track of focus when it lands there.

Why it matters

An element is not visible but remains in the tab order, so a sighted keyboard user loses track of focus when it lands there.

Recommended correction

Keep this element out of the tab order while its containing region is hidden — remove it from focus (for example tabindex="-1"), or apply the inert attribute to the hidden container where supported. Restore normal focusability when the region becomes visible.

The following is a statement from the American Academy of Pediatrics, American Cancer Society Cancer Action Network, American Heart Association, American Lung Association, Campaign for Tobacco-Free Kids and Truth Initiative: With the September 9 deadline, the FDA has yet another opportunity to reverse the current epidemic of youth e-cigarette use and stop tobacco companies from addicting a new generation of kids with e-cigarettes, cigars and other tobacco products. The FDA must protect kids and public health, not the interests of the tobacco industry. Our organizations call on the FDA to take the following critical actions: The FDA must strongly enforce the September 9 deadline and promptly remove products that do not file the required applications by the deadline. To allow the public to assess industry compliance with, and FDA enforcement of, the deadline, the FDA should quickly follow through on its commitment to publish a list of tobacco products for which applications are submitted by the September 9 deadline. The FDA should not authorize the sale of any flavored tobacco products given the clear evidence that flavored products appeal to youth and have driven the youth e-cigarette epidemic. The FDA must require manufacturers to provide rigorous scientific evidence demonstrating that a product will actually benefit public health before authorizing its sale, as the law requires. Four long years after e-cigarettes, cigars and certain other tobacco products became subject to FDA oversight, manufacturers must finally obtain FDA authorization to continue selling these products. During those four years, youth e-cigarette use has skyrocketed to epidemic levels and millions of kids have been put at risk of nicotine addiction. The cause of this crisis is clear: tobacco companies have lured kids with appealing flavors and hooked them with massive doses of nicotine. The FDA must act decisively to stop them. To gain FDA authorization to market a new tobacco product, federal law (the 2009 Family Smoking Prevention and Tobacco Control Act) requires manufacturers to demonstrate that the product is “appropriate for the protection of the public health.” In enforcing this standard, our organizations have urged the FDA to apply the following key principles: The FDA should not authorize any product that will lead youth or other non-tobacco users to initiate use of the product.  Given the strong evidence that flavors attract youth and the lack of evidence that flavored products help smokers quit, no flavored tobacco product – including menthol-flavored products – can meet this test. Manufacturers must provide evidence that the product does not deliver nicotine at levels that increase the risk of abuse and addiction among youth. The FDA must require that manufacturers prove a product will predominantly be used by smokers who would otherwise continue smoking, that they …[truncated by Evolize: exceeded D1 value limit]

Accessible nameIn March 2026, FDA released the “Flavored Electronic Nicotine Delivery Systems (ENDS) Premarket Applications – Considerations Related to Youth Risk; Draft Guidance for Industry." Draft Guidance provides FDA's current thinking about the topic of the guidance. The undersigned public health, medical, civil righs and community organizations conclude that the Draft Guidance fails to recognize the well-established history of signficant variations in youth flavor preferences over time, often caused by regulatory decisions, and this fundamental flaw threatens to open the regulatory door to a wide array of FDA-authorized products that would appeal and be accessible to youth, without signficant countervailing health benefits to adults who smoke.

Draft Guidance provides FDA's current thinking about the topic of the guidance. The undersigned public health, medical, civil righs and community organizations conclude that the Draft Guidance fails to recognize the well-established history of signficant variations in youth flavor preferences over time, often caused by regulatory decisions, and this fundamental flaw threatens to open the regulatory door to a wide array of FDA-authorized products that would appeal and be accessible to youth, without signficant countervailing health benefits to adults who smoke. Tobacco Control Partners Comment Letter to FDA on Zyn's Modified Risk Tobacco Product ApplicationsMarch 9, 2026American Academy of Pediatrics, American Cancer Society Cancer Action Network, American Heart Association, American Lung Association, and Campaign for Tobacco-Free Kidsoppose orders authorizing this claim because Swedish Match has failed to meet the statutory standard for the following reasons:1. FDA’s past authorizations of a similar claim for General Snus should not determine whether the pending applications for ZYN nicotine pouches are granted because theTobacco Control Act requires product-specific analyses.2. Significant differences between ZYN and General Snus – in use rates, relevant toxicology, flavors, and marketing – clearly warrant different consideration.3. The applicant’s reliance on the “Swedish experience” is misleading and of limited relevance.4. The applicant did not submit sufficient data on consumer perception or behavior change related to the proposed modified risk claim and this specific product. The Tobacco Industry is Not the Public Health SolutionFebruary 9, 2023Big tobacco has a history of prioritizing corporate profits over people and communities burdened by tobacco-related illness and death. For decades, the tobacco industry has lied to specific communities and the public at large saying their products are not addictive, harmful or deadly. Tobacco manufacturers continue to create and flood the market with newly designed products they market as being less harmful and alternatives to quitting – a tactic that is not new.

Evolize inspects publicly accessible website pages using automated browser-based testing and deterministic accessibility rules. Automated testing can identify many reproducible technical issues but cannot determine complete WCAG or legal compliance.

  • Publicly accessible surfaces only — no credentials, private systems, or source-code access.
  • Findings apply to the pages and states successfully inspected; automated analysis may not detect every issue.
  • Results reflect the site at the scan date and may have changed since.

Evolize provides digital risk intelligence and does not provide legal advice, certify compliance, or guarantee that litigation will not occur. Methodology · Security · Example assessment
