Update input helper text to meet AAA contrast guidelines #2751

Open AnnaGingle opened 2 weeks ago

AnnaGingle commented 2 weeks ago

Issue description

Form fields' helper text text fails WCAG success criteria 1.4.6 Contrast (enhanced AAA). This does not conform with our accessibility target, WCAG 2.1.

Today the character count text color is Base #71767A. To remediate this issue, update the appropriate input components and change the helper text color to Base Darker #3D4551.

Acceptance criteria

Additional context

When this change is implemented a designer should create a ticket to update the color of helper text in the design system.
