Description Carolyn MacLeod CLA 2016-09-19 18:12:29 EDT 
The switch command is not accessible. It needs:
- role=switch
- aria-checked=true/false
- every switch needs a name (aria-label) and tooltip (aria-describedby)

Also, the hidden <input type=checkbox> and the <label for=the-hidden-input"> need to be removed because the accessibility verification tools do not like that the label has no inner text, and the input that the label points to is hidden.
