This is because it is the government’s responsibility to ensure that all members of society have equal access to information.  This is important as it ensures that all members of society are able to access the information that they require.  It is also important to ensure that people are not discriminated against because of a disability.  This is because it is ableist to exclude people from accessing information because of a disability.  The government is legally and ethically required to provide this.  The technology is also already in place to allow for this to happen, so there should be no excuses to not make government websites accessible to the blind.
