If it became law, it would happen in a couple of weeks.
Good or bad.

It has been done before.  Or more to the point, it is being done.  Apple
has built a screen reader into their operating system.  No, it isn't
absolutely perfect, but we can expect improvement as it developes.  LG
has put speech into some of their phones that allows a blind person to
access the menu system.  The question isn't why isn't anyone doing it,
but rather why aren't more companies doing it.
