(This one's good as it's aimed at media buyers and clients.)

www.webstandards.org is also likely to have one or two usable soundbytes.

You might also want to reinforce the point with some choice bits from the Disability Discrimination Act which kinda ups the ante a bit (in favour of a standards approach)

One more for luck:
