You do realize that exceptions already exist in US copyright law? They basically say that if the copyright holder refuses to make the material available in a format usable by the disabled, then someone else can. However, as long as the holder or an authorized agent makes it available, then you still have to buy it from them.
This isn't about getting it for free, this is about being able to get it at all.
BTW: "someone else" being a state body, or else a non-profit specifically dedicated to helping the disabled.
