Such changes could include making bills different sizes, including raised markings or printing oversized numbers for people who see poorly.

Well, they are already putting bigger numbers on the back. Just look at how big the 5 is on recent $5 bills. Maybe as a reasonable accommodation the government could also distribute metal disks as money which can be told apart by their size and edge ridges.

I'm just waiting for an ADA lawsuit against newspapers for discriminating against the blind.

There IS money that can be determined by the blind (coinage up to 1 dollar). This’ll be another excuse to print even more play money and to encourage us to shift to e-money.

They should just print plain white pages, then all would be equal. Not to mention a much better informed public.
